Sheikha Bodour Becomes University of Leicester's 1st Honorary Professor
Sheikha Bodour bint Sultan Al Qasimi, President and Chairperson of the Board of Trustees at the American University of Sharjah (AUS), was formally conferred the title of Honorary Professor by the University of Leicester, a distinction given for the first time in the university's history. The ceremony took place at the School of Business's Brookfield Campus and was led by Professor Henrietta O'Connor and Professor Dan Ladley. This prestigious recognition honours her exceptional contributions to women's empowerment, child literacy, and cultural development on a regional and international scale.

Championing Literacy, Inclusion, and Publishing Innovation As the founder and CEO of Kalimat Group, Sheikha Bodour has overseen the publication of over 500 socially conscious Arabic children's books across 15+ countries. Her Kalimat Foundation has delivered inclusive literacy programs in 31 nations. She played a pivotal role in the UAE's accession to the Marrakesh Treaty, which ensures accessible books for persons with print disabilities. She also established the Emirates Publishers Association, the UAE Board on Books for Young People, and made history in 2020 by becoming the first Arab woman to serve as President of the International Publishers Association since its founding in 1896. Empowering Women and Strengthening Educational Equity Reflecting on the honour, Sheikha Bodour said, 'This recognition from the University of Leicester is deeply meaningful… education is one of the most powerful ways to build cultural bridges.' She expressed her hope that the award inspires young women to 'lead with purpose' and claim their ideas and space confidently.

Abu Dhabi sets out Dh764m investment plan to boost tourism in Oman's Salalah
Abu Dhabi has set out a Dh764.5 million ($208 million) investment strategy to boost tourism in Salalah, Oman, with plans for a sprawling luxury resort and a marina and beachfront revamp that will help generate hundreds of jobs. The major development – set across a 2.5 million square metre area in Jinawf – aims to bolster Oman's rising status as a tourism hub in the region and globally. Abu Dhabi Fund for Development (ADFD) took part in a ground-breaking ceremony for the Integrated Tourism complex project in Salalah on Monday, along with Omani authorities. The first phase, covering 604,000 square metres, will feature a high-end resort with more than 120 rooms and chalets, as well as the development of the marina and the regeneration of coastal and beachfront areas. The significant funding injection from ADFD will also support essential infrastructure works, including roads and public utilities. "This project is a testament to the deep-rooted strategic ties between the UAE and the Sultanate of Oman," said Mohammed Saif Al Suwaidi, director general of ADFD. "It reaffirms ADFD's ongoing commitment to supporting the development strategies of partner nations through investments that enable economic growth and generate a positive, sustainable impact for local communities. "The project also reflects our vision of economic diversification and our proactive approach to advancing sustainable development through meaningful regional partnerships and shared prosperity." Azzan Al Busaidi, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Heritage and Tourism in Oman, said the scheme was expected to create hundreds of job opportunities while stimulating growth across key economic sectors. The project is central to Oman Vision 2040, which positions tourism as a key driver of economic diversification. Salalah is already a popular tourist destination, particularly for travellers within the Gulf. Holidaymakers visit the city in large numbers during the Khareef season – typically from June to September – when monsoon rains turn the desert landscape into a vibrant sea of lush greenery, leading to cooler temperatures. Last year there were 15 million domestic tourists and four million internationally, exceeding previous record levels of 2019. The UAE, India, Germany and other western European countries were the main tourist source markets for the sultanate. The UAE and Oman last year established investment partnerships worth Dh129 billion across several sectors including renewable energy, railway, green metals and technology. The collaborations were announced following the state visit of Oman's Sultan Haitham to the UAE in April last year. The two countries will set up an industrial and energy mega project valued at Dh117 billion, with solar and wind projects, and green metal production units.

Dubai to convert used cooking oil into clean, renewable fuel
Used cooking oil in Dubai will soon be transformed into clean fuel, as part of a new environmental initiative led by Dubai Municipality in collaboration with BiOD Technology FZCO. The project aims to reduce pollution, ease pressure on the sewage infrastructure, and advance Dubai's transition to green energy. Under the agreement, used cooking oil (UCO), along with fats, oils, and grease (FOG), will be collected from across the emirate and processed into B100 biodiesel — a renewable, cleaner-burning alternative to traditional diesel. Aside from producing clean, renewable energy, the initiative is also expected to lower the operational costs of wastewater treatment and prevent sewer blockages caused by improper disposal of grease and oil. Dubai Municipality has authorised BiOD, a subsidiary of DUBAL Holding, to manage the city-wide collection and processing operations. "This partnership marks an exciting step forward, and we are eager to expand our efforts into broader initiatives that promote sustainable waste management and innovative recycling solutions," said Shiva Vig, CEO of BiOD Technology. 'This partnership represents a significant step in our mission to advance Dubai's environmental agenda through innovative and sustainable waste-to-energy solutions," said Adel Al Marzooqi, CEO of the Waste and Sewerage Agency at Dubai Municipality. Adel Al Marzooqi, CEO of the Waste and Sewerage Agency at Dubai Municipality, added: "By turning waste into a valuable energy resource, we not only protect vital infrastructure and reduce environmental risks but also contribute effectively to achieving the goals outlined in Dubai's Vision 2030 for environmental sustainability. Meanwhile, Ahmed bin Fahad Al Muhairi, Chairman of the Board of BioD Technology, stated: 'Our focus is on implementing practical, impactful solutions that contribute to tangible environmental improvements and advance Dubai's circular economy goals. Moreover, in partnership with like-minded entities, we strive to build a service ecosystem dedicated to making a positive global impact.'
