Launched by His Highness, Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of The Executive Council, it also looks to ensure that disabled persons can rely on themselves while being integrated into the community. The "Dubai Inclusive Development Forum" will be held at Madinat Jumeirah on October 11 and 12.
