Source: About Her

Who run the world? Emirati Women and all women.

The UAE is one of the GCC’s leading countries when it comes to gender equality. Celebrated annually on 28th August, Emirati Women’s Day covers what International Women’s Day does – but specifically about Emirati women. Founded in 2015 by Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, who is also knows as the Mother of the Nation in the United Arab Emirates, Emirati Women’s Day honors the achievements of the Emirati women over the last 50 years, whilst supporting their ambitions for the future. The theme for this year's 2022 Emirati Women's Day will be "Inspiring Reality... Sustainable Future."

This particular theme conveys the changes that are underway within Emirati society and how it is becoming more aware and female-friendly every single year – and of course, none of this would have been made possible had it not been for the efforts made by the people in power, in this case being Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak.
