The students of the Australian School of Abu Dhabi were introduced to the Law Respect Culture concept whereby they were urged to abide by it and equip themselves with a law culture that would help them in their future.

The Law Respect Culture Bureau at the General Secretariat of the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior delivered a lecture to the Australian School students about spreading the Law Respect Culture. Milan Sharif, the legal researcher who gave the lecture, touched upon the issue of instilling such a concept in the new generation in order to prepare them to abide by it. The lecture introduces the students to the meaning of the law in the sense of organizing one’s life, and managing relationships in school, home, and society. Sharif mentioned that there is an individual or societal philosophy behind each legal text.

She added that the desire of some children to do whatever pleases them and behave in such ways that violate rules set by parents, social institutions such as school for example, or even higher authorities can lead to negative consequences beyond their innocent understanding and cognitive ability to foresee a graver issue.

Sharif said that respecting the rights of others and demonstrating consideration towards others from childhood is an intrinsic behavior that ought to be adopted by children as a general concept for life. This ingrained responsible attitude is the foundation of the Law Respect Culture.

The legal researcher tackled the issue of the individual’s responsibility to enforce the provisions of law and respect towards them. She clarified that law protection and implementation is not a mission restricted to police and security entities, but rather a national duty.

Sharif replied to some students’ questions following an animated movie about the concept of law and its role in maintaining societal order and stability. The questions highlighted the concept of law and its various types and functions in the life of an individual. They set practical examples derived from the children’s daily lives and experiences of authorities concerned with law enforcement.
