Hand in Hand: UAE marks 2025 as the Year of Community

Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, announced 2025 as the Year of Community under the tagline “Hand in Hand.” It is regarded as a nationwide initiative that will run from January until December 2025.

The Year of Community is aimed at strengthening the bonds between communities and fostering the national initiative of unity and inclusion. By fostering community values, the initiative seeks to preserve cultural heritage, strengthen intergenerational connections, and develop inclusive spaces for collaboration and belonging. 

“Hand in hand we will work to strengthen social bonds, foster shared responsibility, and unlock potential for inclusive and sustainable growth,” Sheikh Mohamed said in a social media post.

At the same time, the initiative invites everyone who calls the UAE home to contribute through community service, volunteerism, and impactful efforts to promote shared values, responsibilities and growth.

This will not only unlock the potential of families, businesses and communities in building inclusive growth and a sustainable future for all, but also celebrate the cultural diversity in the UAE and countries across the world. 

A strong community “lays the groundwork for a brighter future for generations to come,” Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE, and Ruler of Dubai, said, stressing that the foundation of the nation’s strength lies in the connection and care between individuals.

The Year of Community 2025 initiative will be overseen by Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister, and Chairman of the Presidential Court, along with Sheikha Maryam bint Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Chairperson of the Presidential Court for National Projects.

As part of the initiative, several events and community-focused activities will take place across the country to strengthen community cohesion and ensure the growth of a supportive environment where everyone can contribute to progress.
