Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai. More than two decades ago,
his vision aimed at bringing about revolutionary changes in the education landscape, materializing in the

inception of Hamdan Bin Mohammed Smart University as the first smart university in the region, offering
an innovative smart education model. I hope that the adoption of this new UAE initiative by UNESCO
serves as a catalyst, inspiring universities, higher education institutions and educational stakeholders

across the nation to intensify their efforts in accelerating digital transformation in education. This involves
the incorporation of digital solutions into curricula and educational models. I am confident that the future
holds more groundbreaking Emirati initiatives that will further solidify the UAE’s global position as a hub

for programming and digital education.”
