Tributes roll in as we rapidly approach the seventh annual celebration of Emirati Women’s Day. Everyone from royals, activists, celebrities and official organisations have all shared their acknowledgements, recognising the importance of this holiday, which was created by Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak in 2015. She noted in an official statement that this year’s theme is “Inspiring Reality.. Sustainable Future,” which is a sentiment that encourages us all to honour the ambition, leadership and innovations of Emirati women who are making their country a better place. We’ve rounded up everyone observing this holiday online with a list of the best tributes made for Emirati Women’s Day 2022.
