The sixth edition of WeWalk will take place at Dubai Science Park on Saturday, 15 November, to raise awareness and funds to support the treatment of children with diabetes. Organized by TECOM Group in partnership with Dubai Charity Association, WeWalk invites Dubai residents, corporate teams, and families to a dynamic day combining health, community, and philanthropy. Participants can walk, jog, or run a 3.5 km route or cycle a 17 km track. All proceeds from the event will be dedicated to supporting Dubai Charity Association and raising awareness of diabetes prevention and management, especially among children. The event will feature a vibrant atmosphere with stage shows, live performances, interactive games, educational booths, and fitness activations for all ages. This year, participants can also look forward to exciting prizes and giveaways, with football legend Roberto Carlos as a special guest. "WeWalk aims to strengthen social cohesion, raise awareness of the importance of diabetes prevention, and encourage community members to make healthier choices," the organizers stated.

"Our participation stems from the core pillars of our strategy and institutional values, and from our commitment to activating charitable work, strengthening social solidarity, and fostering human connection with all segments of society," said His Excellency Ahmed Al Suwaidi, CEO of Dubai Charity Association.
"This aligns with the genuine humanitarian approach supported by the wise vision of our leadership, which has made our country a global role model in humanitarian work and reinforced its reputation as a symbol of giving."
