ADJD champions family awareness with innovative initiatives on International Day of Families

emirates7 - To mark the International Day of Families, celebrated annually on May 15, the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department (ADJD) organized a vibrant lineup of family-focused activities aimed at reinforcing community values and strengthening family ties.

These events align with the overarching goals of the “Year of Community 2025,” supporting initiatives that promote social cohesion and familial unity throughout the emirate. They also reflect the Department’s ongoing dedication to safeguarding the family structure through innovative awareness campaigns and inclusive programs that cater to all age groups. This effort is in line with the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister, Chairman of the Presidential Court, and Chairman of ADJD, who has emphasized the importance of sustainable support systems to enhance family stability—an essential pillar of a resilient, united society that contributes to Abu Dhabi’s global standing.

Held over three days at The Galleria on Al Maryah Island, the celebration featured a diverse range of interactive and educational events. These included the “Family Consultation and Chat Corner,” where ADJD family counsellors provided guidance, and workshops promoting family values and positive parenting to enhance family wellbeing.

Children enjoyed the “Creative Child’s World” zone, which offered entertaining and interactive activities and competitions, creating a cheerful, family-centric environment.

Adding depth to the celebration, a dedicated exhibition area displayed handmade products crafted by individuals from correctional and rehabilitation centres, as well as juvenile care centres. These exhibits highlighted the UAE’s cultural heritage and traditional craftsmanship.

Visitors also had the opportunity to explore the “Abu Dhabi 360” app, which encourages a holistic approach to wellness by supporting users in maintaining a balanced lifestyle across physical, mental, and social health dimensions.

Through these engaging initiatives, the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department reinforces its commitment to cultivating stronger families and fostering a more interconnected community.
