Leadership vision reflected in global achievement
Maryam Majid Al Shamsi, Chairperson of the Sharjah Social Services Department, congratulated the UAE leadership and said the achievement reflects the emirate’s human-centred approach under His Highness Dr Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah.
She noted that Sharjah has long prioritised the wellbeing of all community segments, launching pioneering programmes and building a comprehensive ecosystem that supports people of all ages—particularly senior citizens.
“Sharjah has developed a meticulous, people-focused strategy that empowers seniors to lead active and fulfilling lives,” Al Shamsi said. She added that the new membership level will enable Sharjah to share its expertise globally, helping other countries enhance their own senior-support frameworks.
