Emirati Women’s Day is a special occasion celebrated every year on August 28, and this year marks the tenth anniversary of this important day. Launched by Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak Al Ketbi, the Mother of the Nation, the day was chosen to coincide with the founding of the UAE’s General Women’s Union.

This day honors the remarkable contributions of Emirati women in a wide range of fields, from politics, economics, arts, and culture, to science and beyond. Emirati women continue to break barriers and lead with strength, leaving an indelible mark on the UAE’s development. Their efforts inspire women worldwide and serve as a beacon of empowerment.

Emirati Women’s Day also recognizes the resilience and courage of the Emirati women who helped build the UAE, and it’s a reminder of how their vision continues to inspire the next generation of young Emirati girls. This is a day to celebrate the power of women, their influence on the world, and their ongoing journey towards even greater accomplishments.
