The Abu Dhabi City Municipality has launched #TheMunicipalityReads to promote the culture of reading. The move is in implementation of the endorsement by the President, His Highness Shaikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, of the year 2016 as a Year of Reading.
"The move is a testament to the municipality's commitment to promote reading as a civilised lifestyle, and a means of learning, development and knowledge. Through this drive, the ADM seeks to inspire internal and external customers to read more, and inculcate reading as a key ingredient of the positive norms and habits of the community," the civic body said in a statement.
The municipality recently held a 'Read' event in the Mohammed bin Zayed City, in collaboration with the Abu Dhabi Tourism and Culture Authority. The event aimed to broadening the scope of child cultural orientation.
