As a UAE national and Emarati citizen it is my duty to speak about issues that concern the country and its people.Integrating individuals with special needs are one of these issues that must be raised.All humans are created equal in this world and it is our duty to ensure people of all nationalities and abilities are given there rights.

All individuals have a right to a quality of life.All people are unique and possess abilities that are essential for further development. No member of society should be refused,discriminated and shunned by society.All of us have a place in society and can contribute to it in a meaningful manner from work to social activities the possibilities are endless. Integration of Individuals with special needs is essential for the development of a modern society.

I hope that through dedication and hard work we as a people and society are able to bridge differences and work together to help special needs institutions as well as the individuals who need stronger support . Creating awareness through carrying out extreme events is one of my strategies as this breaks new ground in human achievement and also gives individuals with special needs a strong and more firm voice.As an individual i have dedicated a part of my life to serving those whom are not given relevant exposure in general and to help re educate the public on special needs and its institutions who aim for successful integration. With a plan all challenges and all things are possible and when we extend our hands to those who need our support the most,we find that even making the smallest difference can make a big impact on a person as well as there outlook on life. The Heart is the strongest muscle in the body and it is the heart which takes you places.
