H.E. Abdullah Ali bin Zayed, Executive Director of Dar Al Ber Society, said the Society, in a bid to closely and directly follow up the developments of all its charity projects around the world, has started field visits to these schemes in collaboration with Dar Al Ber partners around the world.

“Senior staff and specialists are being dispatched on a regular basis to meet with Dar Al Ber strategic partners across the globe to be updated about the developments of the philanthropic projects being carried out and their capability to run these schemes.”

The critical visits are also meant to check on the prices, specifications and designs of the ongoing and planned projects as initially proposed from the strategic partners abroad, and highlight the remarks and recommendations due, he added.

“To that end, a delegation of the Society experts and specialists, including Abdulkareem Jaafar Al Hassan, manager of projects department, and Abdulhakeem Mohammed Abdullah, property assessment specialist, paid a 15-day visit to Dar Al Ber charity projects in Ghana and Senegal.”

Shaikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, and H.H.
