AL AIN, (Pakistan Point News - 10th Mar, 2019) Strata Manufacturing has participated in a nationwide outreach programme to further empower Emirati youth by supporting the Think Science and Tawteen 360 Student Forum initiatives.
The Al Ain-based company will tour six emirates to host a series of motivational talks and workshops that will focus on educating and encouraging Emirati youth to engage with science, technology and innovation, as part of Think Science, a programme established by the Ministry of education and the Abu Dhabi Department of Education and Knowledge.
"To realise the UAE’s wider goals of building a knowledge-based economy, ambitious and skilled talents are required to drive necessary growth. Through initiatives, such as Think Science and Tawteen, Strata is encouraging the country’s youth to consider a career in the aerospace industry, which is a key sector driving the UAE’s vision of youth development and economic diversification," said Ismail Ali Abdulla, CEO of Strata.
"With over half of our workforce being UAE nationals, Strata is a global success story built on homegrown assets. Our commitment to nurturing, developing and championing the leaders of tomorrow is the foundation of Strata’s long-term growth, with our skill-based workforce making Abu Dhabi and the wider UAE a manufacturing hub," he added.
In line with Think Science’s focus to empower and support the youth across the UAE, Strata’s expert engineers will share their knowledge on several topics and showcase various technologies used in the manufacturing processes, such as additive manufacturing.
As part of the wider Think Science competition, Strata will also host workshops where students can build an aircraft while considering safety, quality, cost, delivery and people.
Strata’s support for youth-focused events, such as Think Science and Tawteen, is in line with its ethos, as well as its efforts to educate and encourage Emirati students, while helping to create a platform that will enable the youth to become the leaders of the future.
