In the same context, Lt. General Dhahi Khalfan Tamim praised the efforts made by the Ministry of Interior to achieve intellectual security and protect the youth’s minds.

It dedicates special attention to the youth, which are the most important strategic target for any authority in charge of instilling values and morals. “Young people in the prime of their age are a fertile ground well suited to instill positive morals and values, which will define their future behavior, and enhance their commitment to the ideals and customs upheld by their community,” he continued.
Maryam Al Ahmedi, Social Researcher at the Law Respect Bureau, and a member of Juveniles Awareness and Care Association, explained that a long term educational program will be organized for the youth and their parents across the UAE, to emphasize the importance of law respect.

In conclusion, she called for availing of the efforts of volunteers and activists in the field of juvenile care and to invest in their creative ideas to complement and provide support for the work undertaken by official institutions working in this field.
