More than 300 young Emiratis and 75 supervisors and lab technicians attended the orientation workshops organised in partnership with the Ministry of Education, Abu Dhabi Educational Council and Sharjah University. The workshops included interactive and Q&A sessions on how to build a scientific proposal, with the aim of encouraging youth to get involved in more competitions.
