In line with Dubai’s digital transformation efforts, the Framework promotes the automation
and digital integration of child protection services, improving accessibility and efficiency.

Legislative reforms are also underway to strengthen governance, accountability, and
compliance with national child welfare standards.

The implementation of the Framework is driven by collaboration among key government

entities, including the Community Development Authority, Knowledge and Human
Development Authority, Dubai Police, Dubai Public Prosecution, Dubai Courts, Supreme

Legislation Committee, Dubai Health Authority, Dubai Corporation for Ambulance Services,
Erada Center, Dubai Foundation for Women and Children, General Directorate for Identity

and Foreigners Affairs, Digital Dubai Authority, and Dubai Sports Council.

Beyond government agencies, the Framework engages a network of professionals and
service providers, including educators, healthcare professionals, social workers, non-profit

organisations, volunteers, and centres supporting children of determination.

A fundamental aspect of the Dubai Child Protection Framework is its focus on building the

capacity of professionals working in child welfare through targeted training programmes.

By launching this initiative, Dubai aims to reinforce its commitment to building a cohesive,
inclusive society, ensuring that every child in Dubai has access to the protection, care, and

opportunities needed to thrive.
