United Arab Emirates (UAE) has marked a significant milestone in its humanitarian efforts, having reached a total of AED 360 billion (USD 98 billion) in foreign aid since its establishment in 1971.
Humanitarian aid and philanthropy have always been a priority for the UAE. By celebrating the 53rd anniversary of Eid Al Etihad, the country reaffirmed its values of generosity and cooperation. The recent initiatives of the President, His Majesty Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, illustrate this mission, notably the launch of the Erth Zayed Philanthropies with a budget of AED 20 billion, aimed at having a profound impact on communities around the world.
In Africa, the UAE has focused its humanitarian efforts in a number of countries, including :
Africa is not the only region in which the UAE is active. Their humanitarian presence extends to other crisis-hit regions, such as Lebanon and Sudan. It recently pledged USD 100 million to help Lebanon cope with its current challenges by sending medical supplies and emergency aid. In addition, a commitment of USD 50 million has been pledged to support development initiatives in member countries of the Islamic Development Bank.
The commitment of the United Arab Emirates to humanity is a model of international solidarity and cooperation. The UAE’s extensive aid programmes seek not only to meet the immediate needs of populations affected by crises, but also to establish lasting partnerships with local organisations for long-term impact.
