ADJD hosts several events on International Day of Families
In celebration of the International Day of Families, observed annually on May 15, the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department (ADJD) hosted a series of engaging family-oriented activities aimed at fostering community values and strengthening family bonds. These initiatives form part of the broader vision of the 'Year of Community 2025,' supporting efforts to promote family cohesion and social unity across the emirate. The celebration reflects the Department's steadfast commitment to preserving the integrity of the family unit through a range of innovative awareness programmes and initiatives tailored to all family members. This is in line with the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mansour Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister, Chairman of the Presidential Court, and Chairman of the ADJD, to ensure the sustainability of support programmes that enhance family stability, a cornerstone of a cohesive and resilient society that underpins Abu Dhabi's global competitiveness. The three-day celebration took place at The Galleria Al Maryah Island, Abu Dhabi, and featured a variety of interactive and educational events. These included a Family Consultation and Chat Corner, where ADJD's family counsellors offered guidance, as well as workshops on the importance of family life and positive parenting aimed at enriching the overall quality of family wellbeing. A special 'Creative Child's World' area provided an array of fun, interactive activities and competitions for children, fostering a joyful and family-friendly atmosphere. Further enriching the event, a dedicated space showcased creative products and handcrafted items made by individuals at correctional and rehabilitation centres, as well as juvenile care centres. These exhibits reflect the cultural identity and heritage of the UAE, highlighting traditional crafts and values. In addition, visitors were introduced to the 'Abu Dhabi 360' app, designed to help all members of the community adopt a holistic approach to wellbeing. The app offers a personalised journey that redefines fitness and mental health, encouraging a balanced lifestyle across physical, mental, and social dimensions. Through these dynamic activities, the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department reaffirms its vital role in nurturing stronger families and a more connected society. Recently, the ADJD organised a family forum at the Juvenile Care Centre in Al Mafraq, in a move to promote humanitarian values and instill a spirit of giving and charitable work among juveniles, in keeping with the legacy of the late Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, for spreading goodness and tolerance in society. The organisation of this event helps to intensify initiatives focused on inculcating noble values in the hearts of juveniles, to rehabilitate them as active members of society. The Family Forum gathered a large number of families of minors placed in care centres, and provided an opportunity to review the noble deeds of the late Sheikh Zayed, who extended a helping hand to all those in need, throughout the world, without discrimination or distinction. The event also provided an opportune setting for a presentation on the importance of humanitarian action and the culture of giving, assistance, solidarity, coexistence and the dissemination of messages of hope, which ultimately filter through to the behaviour of individuals and contribute to the consolidation of a positive spirit. In April, ADJD, through the Correctional and Rehabilitation Centres Sector, implemented the 'Eid Joy' initiative, which aims to enable male and female inmates who have demonstrated a positive behavioral commitment to meet their families and share with them the joy of Eid AlFitr. This initiative is in line with the Department's directives to instil positive values and achieve psychological and social stability for inmates of correctional and rehabilitation centres, which positively impacts their behavior and contributes to building a supportive correctional environment. The ADJD confirmed that the implementation of this initiative is part of its comprehensive rehabilitation strategy, which focuses on strengthening inmates' family ties, enabling them to reintegrate into society after the end of their sentences. The goal is to provide a stimulating rehabilitation environment that provides inmates with the opportunities to develop in preparation for a new life after their release. WAM
