President Dr Mohamed Muizzu met with Maldivian students studying in Liverpool, United Kingdom, during the official visit to UK, a major tourism promotion campaign in partnership with Liverpool Football Club. The meeting, held over lunch, provided a platform for open dialogue between the President and students, allowing for the discussion of their academic journeys, personal well-being, and challenges faced while studying abroad.
The President took the opportunity to express his appreciation for the dedication and determination shown by Maldivian students pursuing higher education overseas. He listened attentively as students shared their experiences and concerns, ranging from academic support to broader matters of living and studying in a foreign country. Reaffirming his administration’s commitment to supporting Maldivians studying abroad, the President assured the students that their voices would be considered in efforts to improve educational policies and student welfare services.
President Dr Muizzu also highlighted the government’s ongoing efforts to strengthen the education system in the Maldives, noting that the insights and feedback from students studying internationally are essential in shaping meaningful reforms. He emphasized that education remains a top priority for his administration, both domestically and in terms of supporting Maldivians pursuing knowledge across borders.
Engaging with overseas Maldivian communities has been a consistent part of President Dr Muizzu’s international visits, reflecting his administration’s focus on staying connected with citizens abroad. These interactions help the government understand the real-world challenges faced by Maldivians living and studying overseas, contributing to more responsive and inclusive policymaking.
The visit to Liverpool forms part of a wider initiative to enhance the Maldives’ global visibility through tourism promotion in collaboration with Liverpool FC. While the campaign aims to attract international travellers to the Maldives, the President’s meeting with students also reflects the importance placed on community engagement and long-term national development through education.
