About NAMA Women Advancement Establishment

NAMA Women Advancement was founded in 2015 by His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Mohammad Al Qasimi, Member of the UAE Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah, and is chaired by Her Highness Sheikha Jawaher bint Mohammed Al Qasimi, Wife of His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah. At NAMA, we are determined to mobilize the means required to create enabling environments to advance gender equity and inclusive economic and social growth. NAMA’s efforts stem from its core philosophy that women's advancement is a fundamental requirement for the sustainable development of nations. Through its affiliates; Sharjah Business Women Council and Irthi Contemporary Crafts Council, we design and implement initiatives that support women across the economic, professional, and social sectors. We also engage with grass-roots and international organizations as part of our comprehensive approach towards developing an ecosystem in which women’s full potential is realized.
