This comes in line with the vision and directives of the UAE’s leadership to build a sustainable knowledge future that keeps pace with the rapid changes imposed on us by the requirements of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and our vision for a comprehensive development renaissance over the next fifty years.”
AlMazrooei added: “By enhancing cooperation with different institutions, we offer diverse and innovative programs and activities that meet the requirements and needs of youth and develop their scientific and technological skills.

The agreement aims to develop a joint work strategy to utilise the robotics lab and nurture creative thinking, learning, and interaction with technology and robots for children and youth who are patrons of the Mohammed Bin Rashid Library through programs and workshops held throughout the year.
This agreement will also allow library patrons to acquire skills in building, programming, and controlling robots and designing and creating their own projects using robots, in addition to providing them with skills related to the science and technology sector and developing their capabilities in preparation for their participation in local and international competitions and challenges.
