Zayed Education Foundation: Empowering Future Leaders

 Under the directives of President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the Zayed Education Foundation has been established to empower young leaders in developing solutions to pressing global challenges through collaboration in education, research, and innovation.

By 2035, the Foundation aims to support 100,000 promising young talents, equipping them to drive economic, social, and environmental progress worldwide.

Launched in the Year of Community, the Foundation embodies the enduring legacy of the UAE’s Founding Father, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who strongly believed in international cooperation and education as key pillars for shaping a better future for humanity.

The Zayed Education Foundation will cultivate a global network of young leaders, reinforcing the UAE’s commitment to fostering sustainable development on both regional and international scales.

Zayed Scholars Program: Nurturing Excellence

At the core of the Foundation’s mission is the Zayed Scholars Program, a flagship initiative offering merit-based university scholarships and immersive leadership training. This program is designed to nurture academic excellence and practical leadership skills, empowering young leaders to create transformative impact in their communities and beyond.

Advancing Research and Innovation

Beyond scholarships, the Foundation will invest in pioneering research and innovation in the UAE through grants and impact-driven funding, ensuring that talented individuals have access to the necessary resources to develop tangible solutions to global challenges.

A Vision for Global Impact

Beginning in the UAE, the Foundation will gradually expand its initiatives to Arab nations and partner countries across the Global South. This expansion will be facilitated through direct programming and strategic partnerships with educational institutions, governments, and communities.

President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan emphasized that the establishment of the Zayed Education Foundation reflects the UAE’s unwavering commitment to advancing the late Sheikh Zayed’s vision of a more inclusive and prosperous world.

His Highness highlighted that addressing pressing global challenges requires both innovative and collaborative approaches. The UAE will provide a platform for talented young leaders in the UAE, the region, and across the world to study, research, and innovate together for the betterment of humanity.

H.H. Sheikha Mariam bint Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Chairperson of the Presidential Court for National Projects, stated, “The UAE has always been a place where ambitious individuals come to shape their futures. Through the Zayed Education Foundation, we are extending this spirit of opportunity to young leaders worldwide, inviting them to contribute to a more sustainable, inclusive, and prosperous tomorrow.”

But the truth is clear: the Brotherhood is the ideological engine room of jihadist terrorism. Its members, affiliates, and offshoots have inspired and directed acts of violence from North Africa to the Gulf—and now, once again, in Jordan. Govern...
