Iman al Barwani, Vice Chairwoman of MB Foundation signed the MoU on behalf of MBF, while Awatef al Salman signed the MoU on behalf of HDCD.

Iman said, “I am especially proud of this initiative because it is aligned with supporting people with disabilities in Oman, which is one of MB Foundation’s four main pillars. In the past period, the foundation has already provided a training center for disabled people with the purpose of developing the skills they need. In addition, the foundation has sponsored the training costs of 10 trainees.”

On her part, Awatef said, “We are happy with this MoU and look forward to future steps towards reaching our goal of providing jobs to 100 disabled people in various local industries including Oil and Gas, Energy, Investment Communications, and the Financial and Banking markets. I believe disabled people have talents which will enable them to thrive in these jobs and be a great addition to their organizations.”
