Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

As part of his visit to Abu Dhabi, President Mohamed Nasheed has yesterday met with UAE’s Minister of State and Chairperson of Dubai Cares, Ms Reem Al-Hashimy.

Dubai Cares is a UAE-based philanthropic establishment launched in September 2007 by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed, with the aim of improving children’s access to primary education in developing nations.

Discussions at the meeting were mainly focused on providing support of UAE government and Dubai Cares to the Maldives to strengthen the education sector.

President Nasheed said that the government’s aim was to provide quality education in the Maldives and that government alone would not be able to achieve this. Therefore, he said, the government welcomed any private party to help the government in this endeavour.

Ms Reem Al-Hashimy briefed the President on the education system in UAE and how religion is taught in UAE schools.
