A Special Olympics UAE robotics competition offered children a crucial social lifeline during months of remote learning.
The education initiative challenged pupils with and without intellectual disabilities to work together to programme a robot.
The opportunity for collaboration and camaraderie proved just as important as learning new skills.
The Unified Robotics 2021 Competition, organised by Special Olympics UAE, featured 375 pupils from 44 schools
in a series of virtual challenges.
