Robotics initiative makes waves on national stage
A volunteer-led Robotics Education Initiative has made waves on the national stage by clinching second place at the World Robot Olympiad (WRO) — Oman National Qualifiers 2025, in the RoboMission Junior Category for ages from 11 to 15. The community Robotics Education Initiative which rocketed to the National Podium at WRO Oman 2025 is the result of the relentless efforts of a group of people who geared the young minds into the world of robotics and marks a shining example of what community, commitment and creativity can achieve when united by purpose. The winning team, ROBOMINDS, featured three bright young minds including Nusrat Mohiuddin, aged 12, Muhammed Narmawala, 13, and Muhammed Shahul Hameed, 14. Launched on May 2, the Robotics Initiative was born from a simple but bold purpose to increase access to high-end technologies among students. Speaking to the Observer, Aleem Mohiudheen, the lead volunteer and the architect of the initiative, attributed the secret formula of success to the students for their dedication and to the community members. 'This resounding success is proof that with focus and hard work, communities can achieve wonders — even in a short span,' he said. 'We encourage all communities — across Oman and around the world — to replicate this model. The Darsait Robotics Volunteer Team is ready to support and guide anyone who shares this vision.' The initiative was supported by a passionate team of volunteers including Shakil Narmawala, Ubaid Ur Rahman, Shiraz Khan, Sanif Danyal and several others who dedicated their time and expertise in mentoring the students.
