The human chain symbolises tolerance and fraternity
“One World One Message” was the message Abu Dhabi Police’s Youth Council wanted to send at an event which marked the first anniversary of the signing of the Fraternity Document during the historic visit of Pope Francis and Grand Imam of Al Zahar.
The Minister of Tolerance Nahyan bin Mubarak Al Nahyan was in attendance. During his speech he praised all attendees, along with Sheikha Fatima, aka ‘Mother of the Nation’, stating she’s a role model of tolerance, coexistence, and human fraternity according to Wam.ae
