Minister praises VP's message to scientists
Sarah Bin Yousef Al Amiri, Minister of State for Advanced Sciences, has said
that the UAE considers scientific and technological advancement as a key
driver for future development. The foundations have been established for
research-driven institutions to spur a nation-wide technological revolution,
she added.
An accomplished young engineer herself, Al Amiri praised the leadership of
the UAE for its vision in the science and technology sector, being developed
under the guidance of President His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al
Nahyan, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President,
Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, and the follow up of His Highness Sheikh
Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme
Commander of the UAE Armed Forces.
Sara Al Amiri’s remarks came during a ‘Meet the CEO’ event organised by the
Government of Dubai Media Office, GDMO. 'Meet the CEO' is a regular series
of press events organised by GDMO for leaders of prominent organisations in
the UAE, with both local and international media attending the event.
Noora Al Abbar, Director of Strategic Media Affairs at GDMO, welcomed the
Minister to the ‘Meet the CEO’ event. The creation of the new ministerial
position reflects the importance given by the country to advanced sciences,
she said. The leadership believes that the next phase of the UAE’s
development journey should be based on a strong scientific foundation to
achieve rapid and meaningful progress across various sectors. "The objective
of this session was to gain a deeper understanding of the UAE’s strategy for
science and technology development that seeks to activate a stronger role
for advanced sciences in our national growth and development, and the effort
to enhance the happiness of the people - top priorities for the UAE
government."
Al Amiri said that His Highness Sheikh Mohammed's message to both current
and aspiring scientists is to take on future challenges to catalyse growth
in key sectors in the UAE including aviation, logistics, and tourism.
"Growth and sustainable development based on technological advancements is
the way forward," she added.
She highlighted Sheikh Mohammed’s call to scientists to develop innovative
solutions in the areas of food and water security, information technology,
and renewable energy. ‘For example, pioneering initiatives and scientific
research pave the way for the UAE to become a world leader in the areas of
quality of life and healthcare," Al Amiri continued.
Speaking on the role of advanced sciences in sustainable development, Al
Amiri highlighted initiatives and projects launched under the UAE’s
scientific strategy outlined in the UAE Vision 2021 and UAE Centennial 2071.
The minister when on to say, "Such initiatives include the launch of the
Mohammed bin Rashid Academy of Scientists, which represents a platform for
the science community in the UAE. The Academy brings together a selection of
scientists and experts to foresee the future of science and technology."
The Minister of State for Advanced Sciences also said that the coming three
years will see the launch of a number of initiatives in the scientific
research field. "We will witness the introduction of ‘scientific diplomacy’
that will see enhanced cooperation between the UAE and international
research institutions. We are also working on an initiative to attract
talent to work on solutions to improve the quality of life and services to
the community," she explained, underscoring the importance of the new visa
system that eases visa requirements for scientists.
"The Ministry of Education also plans to establish a research fund to cater
to universities across the country. This will play an important role in
encouraging talented students to tackle challenges and come up with
solutions,’ she added. ‘In the long run, this will constitute the core of a
new drive for research-based development," she added.
Al Amiri also stressed the importance of the private sector in supporting
the growth of scientific research. She called for the launch of initiatives
that boost partnerships between scientific research institutions and the
private sector and highlighted the importance of developing the sciences
curricula as part of investing in future generations.
Al Amiri said that the first 100-day plan of the Ministry of State for
Advanced Sciences focuses on the creation of an environment that can
catalyse the development of the knowledge-based economy, enhance
productivity and competitiveness, and increase national funding for
scientific research.
