There are no limits to creative thinking, and there are no limits to the community initiatives launched in general by the Dubai Police, which directly reach its goals to the target audience, and achieve the required success. This success has two direct reasons: the first: the simplicity of the idea despite its creativity, and the second: the involvement of all groups of society, and here the benefit lies And the goal of spreading is achieved, as society contributes to and participates in awareness and education of society, but under the supervision and supervision of the police!
The best example of this is that the initiative launched by the Dubai Police during the last month of Ramadan, and it continued to be applied on a daily basis to this day, the "Share with Bicycle Teams" initiative, which simply opened the field of volunteering for all individuals and from different nationalities, to participate with the police In patrols, inspection campaigns, and awareness on bicycles, through which volunteers check on the followers of the public following the precautionary measures, and spread awareness among them of the need to implement these measures to preserve their health and safety, in addition to helping the police officers to ensure that individuals adhere to the timing of the national sterilization program, and not to violate the instructions By being outside the house in the meantime.
The beauty of the initiative lies in the sense of individual participation of volunteers in providing beneficial services to the community, especially in such difficult circumstances. Therefore, within three days, there were more than 4000 requests in the site designated for registration in the initiative, and a large number of them were chosen, representing about 30 nationalities From the first day, they actually started participating in the night inspection flights, after they enrolled in a quick awareness and educational course in Dubai Police, to learn about the goals and procedures of the initiative. There is no doubt that this eagerness to volunteer, and this number of different nationalities, reflects the eagerness of all residents in Dubai to volunteer, and community contribution to serve the city, and this is the most beautiful meaning of volunteering, participation, and integration in this distinctive society.
Volunteers in the initiative have several responsibilities, the most important of which is spreading awareness about the precautionary and preventive measures against the Corona virus, but before that they are educated first with educational lectures that enable them to provide information about the procedures and measures for combating the spread of the virus, and this is a good guarantee to spread outreach among various groups of society in the form Correct and direct.
It may be a simple initiative, as many will see it, but its importance and beauty lie in its simplicity, and perhaps those who read or hear about it will not feel its true value as those volunteers feel, they have come to know first-hand the nature of the police work, and get to know first-hand the difficulties that face individuals The police, meanwhile, are saturated internally with proper precautions, which they will work hard all their time - during and outside the volunteering period - to urge others to abide by them, thereby spreading awareness, and everyone is responsible for combating the spread of the new Corona virus!
