The initiative comes under the UAE Presidents' campaign to support the people of Lebanon and amid the broader humanitarian response which has included emergency aid, food, and healthcare.
The project will use integrated digital platforms to provide educational programs for students and essential tools and training for teachers, underscoring the UAE's commitment to education as a cornerstone of community recovery, sustainable development, and long-term progress.
The project will utilise smart solutions aligned with Lebanon's official curriculum. The digital platform will also be collaborating with various partners and relevant authorities to support children whose education has been disrupted by a lack of resources and adequate infrastructure.
On October 10, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, directed the provision of emergency food aid delivered through MBRGI in collaboration with the United Nations World Food Program to benefit 250,000 people in Lebanon.
Furthermore, the UAE kicked off the ‘UAE Stands with Lebanon’ campaign in October, which drew a massive humanitarian response from the community. Individuals from diverse nationalities and backgrounds, including Sheikhs, ministers, dignitaries, and business leaders, came together to contribute to relief efforts at collection centres in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, and Fujairah.
The Emirates' efforts to provide aid for Lebanon have included the delivery of essential medical supplies, food as well as supplies for women and children to Lebanon via air and sea shipments.
