The partnership marks a significant step towards strengthening collaboration and promoting shared objectives in community and workforce development. The agreement was signed by H.E.

H.E Hessa bint Essa Buhumaid from CDA, said: 'The partnership marks a strategic step toward enhancing institutional collaboration in community empowerment and opening practical pathways to opportunity, it stems from a firm belief that the individual is both the heart and purpose of development, a principle that aligns with Dubai's vision of building a cohesive, productive, and sustainable society. We are confident that this collaboration will serve as a launchpad for impactful initiatives that deliver tangible outcomes and meet the aspirations of community members, ensuring their long-term empowerment and well-being.' The MoU aims to lay the foundation for deeper collaboration between both parties to design and deliver targeted programs that support the integration of Emiratis into the workforce. Through personalised career guidance, specialised training, and tailored employment pathways, we aim to equip national talent with the requisite tools to thrive and succeed across various sectors. The collaboration further aligns with CDA's empowerment strategy to improve citizens' quality of life and enhance their economic participation, in line with Dubai's long-term development vision. This MoU exemplifies a leading model of effective integration between government entities focused on Emiratisation and community development. It echoes Dubai's commitment to building a responsive and forward-looking employment ecosystem, in line with the objectives of the 'Dubai Social Agenda 33' and the 'Dubai Economic Agenda D33,' both of which emphasise increased Emirati participation in economic development and strengthen job market stability for them. A key component of the partnership will involve organising employment days at neighbourhood councils. These events aim to enhance community engagement and strengthen collaboration among relevant stakeholders by enabling Emirati job seekers to explore roles aligned with their qualifications and meet prospective employers in a supportive, opportunity-driven environment. Additionally, the collaboration will facilitate improved coordination between the parties through the sharing of relevant data and the development of joint action plans. Together, EHRDC and CDA will provide targeted support that addresses both the professional and personal needs of Emirati job seekers, in line with the CDA's empowerment strategy.

The initiative, held in partnership with the Endowments and Minors' Trust Foundation (AWQAF Dubai), aims to strengthen community bonds and uphold cultural traditions.

Buhumaid reaffirmed CDA's commitment to launching initiatives that meet the needs of families and contribute to a sustainable, inclusive community system. 'We aim to make the most of religious, national, and social occasions to highlight the value of each individual in society,' she added. News Source: Emirates News Agency
