stakeholders within the Emirate. This initiative reflects our vision to bolster Dubai’s future
plans by leveraging exceptional talents, brilliant minds, and globally competitive expertise.

It aligns seamlessly with Dubai’s strategic vision for 2033, including the ambitious Dubai

Economic Agenda D33, which seeks to double the size of Dubai’s economy over the next
ten years. Additionally, it is in line with the Dubai 2024 Urban Master Plan, which prioritises

the implementation of The UAE Net Zero by 2050. We are also confident that this project
will yield a positive impact on the human element in Dubai and the UAE. Moreover, we

eagerly anticipate expanding our collaborative efforts with strategic partners in
government and private sectors, driving the advancement of our strategies and programs,

and establishing new benchmarks for government efficiency.”

In the preparations for the launch of this project, delegation from DGHR headed by
Abdullah Ali bin Zayed Al Falasi, Director-General of DGHR, conducted a series of visits to

key government and private entities.

The visits revolved around discussions aimed at fostering collaboration and joint efforts
within the scope of the Future Proofing Dubai’s Workforce project. DGHR initiated this

project with the primary aim of envisioning the future of Dubai’s workforce in response to

dynamic changes in the job market.

This project holds considerable strategic importance as it places emphasis on deepening

the understanding of job market and trends, as well as both current and future skills

essential for human capital. This ambitious vision places a priority on enhancing the global
competitive edge of the workforce. It involves developing a comprehensive strategic map

that facilitates the integration of Emirati nationals into the private sector, encourages the
active participation of UAE nationals in both the government and private sectors, and

positions Dubai as a hub for talents and experts.

Future Proofing Dubai’s Workforce project plays a vital role in realising the strategic vision
of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime

Minister and Ruler of Dubai, to position Dubai as a global hub for innovation and creativity.
Through this initiative, DGHR aims to address the evolving needs and future expectations

of the human workforce in Dubai. It is further dedicated to providing solutions and

proposing effective tools that empower both national human capital and global talents.
