Raised in a multicultural environment (Her father’s origin from Dubai, UAE and her mother from Sparta, Greece), Shaikha Mahra Al Maktoum, grew up recognizing the value of diversity.
She was taught to respect different ideas, perspectives and traditions of other i...ndividuals, while appreciating her own culture and background.
She learned to show empathy, compassion and respect towards the needs and feelings of others, while the dynamism and imagination of her father sparked her love for exploration and horses.
