UAE Year Of
Welcome to the Year of Family
Following the directive of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, 2026 has been designated as the Year Of Family.
Grounded in a shared sense of identity, the Year of Family aims to nurture family closeness, support growth, and help lay the foundations for confident and capable generations.
Building on the nation’s enduring values of connection and belonging, the Year of Family sheds light on the everyday moments and efforts that strengthen family wellbeing and shape a shared future rooted in authenticity and openness.
The Year of Family is launched under the UAE Year Of initiative; a national storytelling initiative that fosters collective action for everyone who calls the UAE home, and aligns with annual national priorities.
