The Council will define a comprehensive strategy to consolidate the UAE’s values of respect and appreciation with governments and citizens across the world, state news agency WAM reported.

The UAE Soft Power Council will report directly to the UAE Cabinet, and will develop a soft power strategy, including the science, culture, technology, humanitarian and economic sectors.

The Council will review all legislation and policies that affect the UAE’s status and reputation, WAM said.

Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid stressed that the UAE has military and economic power and will now develop its soft power in order to solidify its reputation, and serve the interests of its people in the long term, establishing relationships across various sectors including the economic, tourism and investment sectors.

“We must build strong diplomatic relationships and systems… to make the UAE a global example of prestige and excellence,” he said.

He added: “The UAE holds a special place in the hearts of millions of people around the world; we want to build on that and elevate it. We have the economic, cultural components to achieve this swiftly.

“We want to develop a different strategy to introduce our culture and values to all people across the world. We want to utilise new tools and methods in order to reach more people, and share our knowledge, culture and history with the world.

“The UAE Soft Power Council is a stepping stone to achieving this vision, and promoting our country through successful public diplomacy to many people from various backgrounds.”
