This year's offerings for school students encompass three distinct programmes: Qudwati, dedicated to instilling a strong sense of the UAE's national identity; Fikrati, designed to inspire creativity, innovation, and humanitarian initiatives; and the Language of the Qur’an programme, focused on enhancing proficiency in Arabic language skills.
For university students, the Fursan Qeyam Al Ensan programme stands out, offering a comprehensive three-week course on human values, followed by engaging community service projects. Initially launched as a pilot initiative at select universities, it aims to enrich students' understanding of societal responsibilities and ethical values.
The Sandooq Al Watan summer programmes have already garnered substantial interest, with over 15,000 students registered to participate, reflecting a strong commitment to personal and professional development among the UAE's youth.
