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. Furthermore, these efforts actively seek to foster partnerships and
collaboration between the government and private sectors with a goal to drive
sustainable development and enhance the overall well-being of the community.
