Dubai Police has launched its 2025 summer programme under the theme “Our Summer is Safety, Happiness, Innovation, and Leadership,” bringing together 1,332 students aged 11 to 18 from 35 countries.
Organised by the International Hemaya Centre of the General Department of Anti-Narcotics, the initiative is being held in partnership with the Ministry of Education, KHDA, and various public and private sector entities. The programme aims to develop youth leadership and awareness through structured training, field visits, and educational activities.
Major General Eid Mohammad bin Thani Harib, Director of the General Department of Anti-Narcotics, said the initiative reflects Dubai Police’s commitment to shaping responsible, informed youth who are equipped to tackle challenges and avoid legal risks. He emphasised the importance of national identity, discipline, and institutional collaboration in character building.
Brigadier Abdul Rahman Sharf Al Maamari, Director of the International Hemaya Centre, confirmed the programme will run across 16 training centers. It will offer five main categories: general training, specialised programmes, awareness lectures, partner-led sessions, and field visits.
Participants will engage in activities such as military and sports training, future leadership programmes, and specialised courses including martial arts, SWAT training, and investigative skills. Lectures will cover pressing topics like drug abuse, cybercrime, and traffic safety, while field visits include the Dubai Police Museum, forensic units, and the K9 centre.
The programme continues to grow each year, thanks to the efforts of over 40 strategic partners contributing to its long-term impact and sustainability.
