        Establishment of Women's Associations in the United Arab Emirates

        by Mouza Al Alghufli

        The book discusses the emergence of women’s associations in the UAE and introduces their establishment, branches and affiliated centers, the laws of these associations, their administrative structure, and their financial resources, starting from Abu Dhabi Women’s Association in Abu Dhabi 1973, Umm Al Quwain Women Association 1973, Women’s Union Association in Sharjah 1973, Umm Al Moumineen Women's Association in Ajman 1974, and Al Nahda Women's Association in Ras Al Khaimah 1979. It also highlights the emergence of the General Women's Union in the UAE in 1975, and the interest of His Late Highness Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the founder of the UAE, in Emirati women’s issues, and his constant encouragement of them by supporting the Mother of the Nation, Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, President of the General Women's Union, Supreme President of the Family Development Foundation, and President of the Supreme Council for Motherhood and Childhood, which made it one of the Union's most prominent achievements in the advancement of Emirati women. The research deals with the Dubai Women's Association, using it, as an example, for monitoring what has been accomplished by the Association in service of its affiliates in particular and society in general. The time frame for the research in this book is set as starting from 1973, the year in which the first women's association was established in the UAE (Abu Dhabi Women’s Association), until 2001, the year in which the UAE's General Women's Union obtained a silver jubilee.

He has just returned from a visit to Syria where he had been introduced to Sheik Abu Hamid, the owner of the most magnificent Arab horses the Earl has ever seen. They are both keen to buy horses from the Sheik who is reluctant to sell unless his greatest wish can be fulfilled. He wants to receive a Royal Princess as his guest at his house in the desert, so that he can show his neighbours how important and prestigious he in..the Earl and Charles concoct a plan to take a fake Princess with them to Syria, but cannot think how they can find a suitable candidate for the role until Charles suggests his beautiful sister, Vanda. The Earl has another reason for this escapade and leaving England in that he is being ruthlessly pursued by the glamorous Irene, Lady Grantham, and he is becoming disenchanted with her. Charles has no difficulty in persuading Vanda, as she is most enthusiastic about Arab horses. And they set off in the Earl’s yacht together. They are greeted cordially by the Sheik and Vanda plays her part splendidly as the Princess. They are very impressed by all the Arab horses, but dangers soon arise as Vanda is too convincing as Royalty and their whole mission is jeopardised. How the Earl saves the day and Vanda finds the love she has always sought is told in this gripping story by BARBARA CARTLAND.
