The culture of volunteering, social responsibility and tolerance are key elements in the development process in the United Arab Emirates, and a vital part of its social fabric and cultural heritage. The UAE has taken a keen interest in consolidating this culture, organization and expanding its scope across a range of specialized platforms such as the UAE Volunteers, the National Program for Tolerance, and the Corporate Social Responsibility UAE Fund.

In turn, the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE) believes in the importance of these values in achieving the sustainable development that we aspire to, and pushes for their consolidation and promotion among its employees and customers, as well as among individuals and all segments of society. MOCCAE aims to make social responsibility and volunteering part of the key performance indicators in its work and success on the personal and institutional levels.

The more complex the challenges become, the need for innovation increases. Our initiatives, within the framework of the National Strategy for Advanced Innovation, aim to empoweryoung generations with innovative skills and encourage them to employ them in finding innovative and sustainable solutions to the current challenges we face, especially in the field of environment, climate change and food.
