President Sheikh Mohamed has unveiled the Erth Zayed Philanthropies to “consolidate major global efforts carried out under his patronage” to improve lives around the world.
Also known as the Erth Zayed, the project will uphold the legacy of UAE Founding Father, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and inspire future generations, state news agency Wam said. Its headquarters will be in Abu Dhabi.
Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed, Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the Presidential Court, said the new organisation would “amplify [the UAE's] global philanthropic impact”.
“It represents a strategic effort to bring together our humanitarian initiatives and philanthropic entities under one cohesive vision, enhancing their reach and effectiveness to deliver positive impact on a truly global scale,” he added.
Sheikh Theyab bin Mohamed, chairman of the International Humanitarian and Philanthropic Council, said: "The spirit of giving has long been central to the UAE’s identity and is deeply rooted in the enduring legacy of our Founding Father and the unwavering commitment of the UAE’s President."
Erth Zayed Philanthropies will oversee programmes across sectors, put partnerships to work across public and private industries and encompass a portfolio of high-impact projects in areas of local and international significance.

Who is Tim-Berners Lee?
Sir Tim Berners-Lee was born in London in a household of mathematicians and computer scientists. Both his mother, Mary Lee, and father, Conway, were early computer scientists who worked on the Ferranti 1 - the world's first commercially-available, general purpose digital computer. Sir Tim studied Physics at the University of Oxford and held a series of roles developing code and building software before moving to Switzerland to work for Cern, the European Particle Physics laboratory. He developed the worldwide web code as a side project in 1989 as a global information-sharing system. After releasing the first web code in 1991, Cern made it open and free for all to use. Sir Tim now campaigns for initiatives to make sure the web remains open and accessible to all.
