Youth can have positive impact on society

Author urges UAE youth to feel a sense of belonging and contribute to their society and not to be brainwashed by those with agendas.

Dr Ebrahim Al Dabal, Director of the International Training Programme and United Nations International Expert Consultant Trainer, launched his second book titled ‘The Social Leader’ after being inspired by the youth in his country.

The book was launched yesterday at Mirdif City Centre.

The Emirati author highlighted the need for youth in the UAE to feel a sense of belonging to their country and culture. “The youth should be aware about the society surrounding them, and should learn how to have a positive impact on their community.”

While targeting youth in particular, ‘The Social Leader’ is a thought-provoking read for anyone over the age of 15, said Al Dabal. The book focuses on the social aspect of the Emirati community and presents examples of youth in countries around the world. The book also acts as a guide to youth on ways to best understand and excel in areas of their work and education.
