About The Republic:
In April 2010, a group of three enthusiastic college students initiated a unique youth group, in the U.A.E, to deploy projects for youth benefit and support. The trio called it
"The Republic". After a few successful events and projects, more students showed an
interest in the group and joined the team to contribute their talents and skills for a good
cause. The Republic grew significantly, and continues to do the same.
The Republic provides a platform for university students in the U.A.E. to connect with each other, discover their talents and give back to the society. Under the roof of the Republic, the students learn to stand as one. The varied talents of "The Republicans" elegantly lend themselves to the concept of TR as a "collector of clubs." Students form clubs where those with similar interests can get together to explore their fields of interest and in the process gain knowledge, experience and skill. Each club has its own goals and methods, but occasionally the different clubs unite to work on large-scale projects, mostly events. The goal of The Republic as a unit is to "edutain" i.e. educating while entertaining. For further information, please visit https://www.therepublic.ae
