Dubai Electricity and Water Authority, DEWA, is organising the 5th Future Engineer camp for its employees’ children aged between 12-15.

This is part of DEWA’s efforts to achieve its vision to become a sustainable innovative world class utility and its role in enhancing creativity and scientific innovation among the younger generation.

The camp will be held at ‘Reading is Positive Energy’ tent at Zabeel Park in Dubai. It will have two phases; the first from 29th July to 9th August, 2018, and the second in December 2018. Students will graduate after completing the two phases.

"Our efforts to promote innovation, support the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, who once said, ‘Our responsibility is to prepare generations for the future and our ambitions are to have scientists who contribute to the progress of mankind.’ The Future Engineer camp is an ideal platform to prepare students for promising careers, providing them with technical skills, and developing their scientific research and their innovation and creativity. It also motivates the new generation to learn science and technologies, and take education to new levels.

"This supports DEWA’s objectives to consolidate a knowledge environment that contributes to preparing a generation armed with science and knowledge. This contributes to achieving the UAE Centennial Plan 2071, which is a long-term government plan to prepare the UAE and young Emiratis for the future," said Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of DEWA.
