During the first day of the event, Dr. Al Shamsi, while attending a ministerial session, gave a presentation on Sheikha Fatima's efforts as "Mother of the Nation" in the field of empowering women through economic projects, especially projects related to the UAE heritage.
The participants in the ministerial session praised the efforts exerted by Sheikha Fatima to support and empower women. They also expressed their admiration at Sheikha Fatima's projects as well as her continuous follow up to develop such projects.
