Introduction to the course

Introduction

The late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan (may Allah have mercy upon him), founded a nation deeply rooted in human values. That approach was reinforced further and set on a path by the nation’s wise leadership which positions the United Arab Emirates as an exemplary model on the regional and world stage where all civilizations meet and converge to adopt a systemic structure of coexistence enriched by the nation’s residents who hail from from different nationalities, religions and races, its citizens and people who visit from all over the world.

In the UAE, tolerance is not simply the acceptance of opinions or behaviors that do not concur with your own. It is about recognizing, respecting, and embracing diversity. It is about being secure in your own culture and beliefs, so that you are able to respond to what is different with curiosity and compassion rather than with fear and intolerance. To be tolerant we need to be genuinely concerned for the welfare of our fellow human beings, and to take action based on those concerns.
