The National Archives Organizes Exhibitions of Historical Photographs to Mark Zayed Humanitarian Day



In the Year of Giving and in celebration of Zayed Humanitarian Day, the National Archives organized an exhibition of historical photographs in Sheikh Zayed Mosque, and distributed hundreds of copies of its best-selling Books “Zayed and Excellence” and “Zayed from Challenges to Union”). In its belief in the importance of the social responsibility, the National Archives organized, as well, two photography exhibitions; one at the end of Al Ain Ramadan Championship 2017 and the other was at Al Ain Club for the Disabled.

These exhibitions included historical photographs that document some of Sheikh Zayed generous acts of benevolence to his people and to the peoples of the world at large, as a token of appreciation, and as a way to raise their standard of living.

It is noteworthy that the National Archives’ annual holding of a documentary exhibition at Sheikh Zayed Mosque included this year some rare photographs together with screens displaying documentary films. This allowed a large number of the Mosque visitors and worshippers to have a look at some of the National Archives’ treasures, which shed light on proud pages of the UAE history. They capture the achievements of Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who serves as an ideal example of leadership acumen that  brings great benefits to all its people, and extend its humanitarian giving to  those in need around the world, regardless of their race and religion.

The National Archives makes sure to participate in Zayed Humanitarian Day, because it is very special to all Emiratis, as it honors the memory of Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the UAE founding leader. In fact, it is a tribute to his leading role in setting in motion the process of humanitarian giving in the UAE.

Through its exhibitions, the National Archives opens a window of opportunity for people to have a close look at Sheikh Zayed’s achievements in the field of charitable and humanitarian work. Actually, such a charitable and humanitarian work has become a slogan for the UAE’s leadership and people. This was especially so in 2017, the Year of Giving that brought tremendous happiness to a great many people and helped alleviate the suffering of those in need and those affected by  disasters worldwide. Not to mention the efforts of the late Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who set great store by the UAE humanitarian role since its formation and instilled in his people a passion for giving in all fields of humanitarian endeavors.
