Dubai: His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, today launched the Dubai Social Agenda 33 for the decade until 2033, highlighting the theme of ‘Family: The Foundation of Our Nation’.

The launch of the Dubai Social Agenda 33 follows his tradition of unveiling promising national programmes and projects on January 4 of every year, which marks the anniversary of his accession as the Ruler of Dubai.

Sheikh Mohammed said: “As has become our custom to unveil promising national programmes and projects on January 4 of every year, today we announce the launch of the Dubai Social Agenda 33: our plan for the Dubai community over the next decade. Its theme is ‘Family: The Foundation of Our Nation’, and its budget is Dh208 billion until 2033. Its target is our Emirati families in Dubai and all aspects of their lives, in terms of housing, quality of life, identity and values, social cohesion and healthcare, as well as equipping the new generation with future skills.

“We aim to double the number of Emirati families within a decade, provide residential neighbourhoods that offer the world’s highest standard of living and safeguard our young generation against negative ideas that threaten the stability of our families. The Dubai Social Agenda outlines clear objectives and programmes based on the allocated budget, and will be overseen by my sons Hamdan, Maktoum, Ahmed and their brothers who grew up as part of the larger Dubai family and will care about its wellbeing more than anyone else. Our nation is not merely buildings and figures; it is made up of families and people. My message to everyone in charge is that our priority for the next stage is to protect, empower and support our families.”

He said, “Today we launch the Dubai Social Agenda 33 with family at the centre: its formation and values, its protection and empowerment, its health and education. Because family is the foundation of the nation, and our vision is to create healthy stable families capable of nurturing a generation that believes in its abilities, is connected to its identity and ready for the future.
