Ministry of State for Federal National Council Affairs Welcomes 30 Volunteers and 23 Students at Session to Discuss Volunteering Law

The Ministry of State for Federal National Council (FNC) Affairs invited 30 volunteers from the Emirates Red Crescent (ERC) and the "Happiest People" volunteering group, in addition to 23 students from New york city University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD), at the FNC's 15th session of the 16th legislative phase's third cycle.

The session was held to review a proposed Federal Regulation to manage volunteer operate in the UAE, and was participated in by Her Excellency Hessa bint Essa Buhumaid, Minister of Community Development. Organizing the delegation of trainees and volunteers, meanwhile, includes in the Ministry's initiatives to advertise political participation amongst all segments of society.

Rashid Mubarak Al Mansouri, Deputy Secretary-General for Local Affairs at the Emirates Red Crescent, headed the ERC delegation, that were introduced - together with the going to NYUAD trainees - to the crucial function that the Ministry plays in working with in between the Federal government and the FNC, and harmonising their initiatives for the benefit of the country and its individuals. The delegates also researched the Council's duty in clarifying the concerns that affect residents' needs and desires, and recommending favourable strategies because regard.

His Excellency Tariq Hilal Lootah, Undersecretary at the Ministry of State for FNC Affairs, said: "Inviting the volunteers and students to attend this session comes from our dedication to reaching out to all sectors of culture, and reflects our initiatives to execute the vision and regulations of the UAE's sensible management to advertise a society of political engagement by releasing innovative efforts that inform the community concerning the UAE's particular parliamentary experience."

" Volunteer work is an essential pillar in community development, and a key instrument for educating the public," H.E. Lootah included. "In the UAE, volunteering and returning to the community are amongst the established ethical and social values. Welcoming volunteers to attend this Council conference drops under the initiatives to engage the public in these arguments, and allows us to recognize their views and hear their tips on pressing issues."

H.E. the Undersecretary applauded the young people and students section for their terrific interaction with the campaign, which shows their commitment to being part of the conversation, and getting in touch with FNC members, which, in turn, indicates an enhanced political recognition within this highly vital section of UAE society.

The Ministry of State for Federal National Council Matters arranges a collection of routine visits to the FNC for all markets of society, in an initiative to enhance political awareness and engage the general public as energetic members in ensuring the sustainable development of the UAE.
