Every child deserves
to be safe
Dama Al-Aman is Abu Dhabi's commitment to protecting every child. A shared responsibility across families, communities, and government.
Every child deserves to grow up safe, loved, and protected. Learn how Abu Dhabi is working together to prevent harm and safeguard children's wellbeing.
Dama Al-Aman
A system built around your child and family
In Abu Dhabi, keeping children safe is never left to one person, one service, or one sector alone. The Dama Al-Aman system brings together government entities, schools, healthcare providers, social services, law enforcement, and community organizations — all working as one unified team.
Whether your child is at home, in school, at a health clinic, on a sports field, or in a public space — this system is there. Every partner has a clear role, services work together, and families always know where to turn for help.
From preventing harm before it happens to responding swiftly when it does — Dama Al-Aman ensures every child and family receives the right support, at the right time, in the right place.
