These initiatives align with the Sheikha Hind bint Maktoum Family Programme, which aims to enhance family well-being and strengthen community bonds.
Sheikh Mohammed emphasized the importance of citizen well-being as the cornerstone of all development efforts, stating that housing programs are a top priority to ensure stable and comfortable living standards for Emirati families.
