Women are now taking up falconry in the UAE
Traditionally used as a means of collecting food, falconry has evolved into a national sport and rite of passage for many young Emirati girls and women, who take their time to train their falcons. Women are now taking up falconry in the United Arab Emirates, and things are changing in the country.

لطالما اعتُبرت الصقارة في ما مضى وسيلةً لجمع الطعام. وتطوّرت لتغدو رياضةً وطنية وطقساً من طقوس العبور بالنسبة إلى عددٍ من الفتيات والنساء الإماراتيات اللواتي يكرّسن الوقت لتدريب الصقور. وفيما بدأت النساء بممارسة رياضة الصقارة في الإمارات العربية المتّحدة، بدأت الإمارات العربية بدورها تشهد تغييراتٍ ملحوظة.
