Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has completed its 2025 Summer Camp, which focused on People of Determination, orphans, and children of DEWA employees. The camp took place in July and welcomed 64 schoolchildren. It aimed to raise awareness about environmental protection, sustainability, and the importance of preserving resources.
The program included a range of activities such as workshops and an educational visit to a factory operated by Mai Dubai. Mai Dubai is a water bottling and distribution company fully owned by DEWA and is currently the market leader in the UAE for distribution and sales. During their visit, students learned about modern industrial processes and sustainable manufacturing methods.
Parents expressed gratitude for DEWA’s commitment to providing valuable experiences during the summer break. The camp was designed to foster innovation, teamwork, and civic responsibility among participants.
“We thank DEWA for its eagerness to provide a positive environment that motivates male and female students to develop and grow, and to nurture their passion in the fields of environment, technology and all aspects that help them build a prosperous professional future and keep pace with their aspirations and the needs of the labour market,” said Thikryat Abdullah Muhammad, mother of participant Mira Al Suwaidi.
Walid Darwish, father of another participant named Mohammed, said: “The outstanding awareness activities organised by DEWA take into account the age and mental needs and requirements of students, and provide interactive spaces and practical applications that contribute to building students’ personalities – empowering them and refining their talents, as well as encouraging them to learn continuously and always look forward to excellence and leadership.”
Hessa Abdullah Al Qassim, mother of pupils Hamdan and Salama Abdulrahman Ahrar, added: “DEWA provides opportunities for students to learn communication skills and promote positive and sustainable behaviour, in addition to promoting the noble Emirati values and national identity, in a way that benefits the youth and the country.”
