Miral has entered into a partnership with Aldar Education to develop a variety of interactive educational initiatives for students across 12 of Aldar Education’s schools in Abu Dhabi.
The company said that the initiatives will include a series of quarterly industry-expert talks on a range of topics to inspire and educate students, as well as field trips and tours at Yas Island theme parks.
Bi-annual internship opportunities will also be offered at Yas Island theme parks for students aged 16 – 18 years old, providing them with hands-on experience in the tourism and entertainment sectors.
Additionally, sustainability-focused initiatives such as beach and desert clean-ups, and participation in the conservation initiative, Winged Horizon, a collaboration between MBZ Raptor Conservation Fund, Miral, and Aldar Education aimed at enhancing the population of local birds of prey, will be implemented.
The collaboration with Aldar Education aligns with Miral’s CSR strategy, which aims to create a positive impact across all facets of society, fostering growth and development through culture and entertainment.
Taghrid Alsaeed, Executive Director of Group Communication and Destination Marketing at Miral, said that, “Our collaboration with Aldar Education is dedicated to inspiring the future leaders of tomorrow to explore careers within the tourism, leisure, and entertainment sectors. Through a dynamic blend of entertainment combined with educational and social programs and initiatives, we aim to shape a brighter future.”
Alsaeed further noted that “this partnership highlights our commitment to the educational pillar of our CSR strategy, and to further position Yas Island as a top global destination. By doing so, we seek to drive sustainable value and create a lasting positive impact within our community.”
Dave Taylor, Chief Operating Officer at Aldar Education, stated that, “The diverse range of programs and opportunities offered through our partnership with Miral will enhance our student’s educational journey. By exposing them to real-world experiences and fostering a sense of social and environmental responsibility, we aim to equip our students with the skills and knowledge necessary to become well-rounded individuals and future leaders.”
“This partnership supports Aldar Education’s commitment to providing a holistic education that extends beyond the classroom, ensuring our students develop academically, personally, and socially,” Taylor added.
