The Federal Youth Authority (FYA) concluded the fifth edition of its Emirati Values Iftar initiative, part of the National Programme for Emirati Values, with more than 5,500 residents from 30 nationalities attending.
The guests were hosted in Emirati homes and Majlis gatherings across the country, where they took part in this deeply human experience that reflects the UAE’s authentic national values and strengthens communication among various cultures in the Emirates.
The initiative fostered a broad range of partnerships with Youth Hubs, local and global Youth Councils, as well as sector- and institution-specific Youth Councils. Partnerships also spanned various national, government, and social entities, such as the Dubai Culture and Arts Authority (Dubai Culture), Emirates Happiness and Positivity Association, Emirates Integrated Telecommunications Company (du), Nafis Youth Council, Etihad Water and Electricity (EtihadWE), Abu Dhabi Centre for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (ACTVET), Al Jazeerah Equestrian Club, Ezba Experience, and others.
This collaborative effort serves to reinforce the values of tolerance and coexistence, introduce authentic Emirati customs and traditions, and enhance their global presence by hosting ambassadors, diplomats, and residents from all around the world.
