Never before on this planet has there been a generation
Like ours that has seen such comfort and technological empowerment.
But are we as a generation, the happiest? Peaceful? TOLERANT?
Technology is catalysing social upheavals at a hitherto unseen pace.
The need for a tolerant and peaceful planet is now more than essential for the survival of the human race.
The United Arab Emirates with more than 200 nationalities living together in peaceful co-existence and tolerance understands that with great empowerment comes great responsibility.
