An initiative
taken by the UAE officials in 2019 to revive the core human values that
encourage universal brotherhood, love, cooperation and tolerance is now gaining
speed and the UAE authorities too feel that it has made nationa a model of
tolerance.
The initiative
was launched by the Abu Dhabi Document on Human Fraternity. The aim of this
concept launched last year is to celebrate UAE’s tolerance, multiculturalism
and the way people live happily and peacefully in the country, said Dr Anwar
Mohammed Gargash, the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs.
The top UAE
official spoke about this initiative on Sunday through a virtual platform which
was in place to promote the Principles of Human Fraternity in the Governmental
Work. This is in line with the celebration started on February 4, which will be
stretching for five days and based on the kinship theme.

The minister
said,“The relation between the East and the West has always witnessed
honourable examples of cultural, civilisational and intellectual exchange,
despite the problems and obstacles that marred that relationship at times.”
Dr Gargash was
also very happy for the place that the UAE has achieved over the years adding
that people from around more than 200 nations consider UAE as their second
home. He added that the emirati nation has emerged as a global model of
tolerance with its efforts towards happiness, tolerance and prosperity.
He also talked
about how the situation is changing in today’s time and hence it has become
more important for people to adopt human values as it is the only way people
can achieve multiculturalism so that the world turns more harmonious.
The Forign
Minister also said that the ministry is currently focusing on two key
principles of human fraternity which includes tolerance and coexistence while
also fighting the constant struggle of extremism and terrosism. He especially
stressed on the UAE’s efforts to ‘champion’ human rights cause.
“Efforts are underway to prepare a comprehensive
national human rights plan,” he said. The virtual forum was organised by
the Ministry of Tolerance and
Coexistence along with over 40 ministries and federal authorities discussing
the mechanisms, tools and efforts used by the institutions run by the emirate
aimed at enriching the Document on Human Fraternity.
