for UAE citizens by enabling property owners to subdivide real estate units and

issue independent title deeds for each unit within the building. The initiative will

facilitate more diverse housing options, support family stability and community
cohesion, in addition to stimulating economic growth within the real estate sector.

Implemented in two phases by the Dubai Land Department, the initiative’s first

phase focuses on multi-storey buildings within investment and social-purpose
zones, targeting areas such as Al Nahda, Al Muraqqabat, Al Karama, Al Warqa,

Nad Al Hamar, and Al Barsha. The second phase will extend to villa communities,

providing Emirati families with more ownership choices. By facilitating more

flexible ownership structures, the initiative aims to encourage greater participation

in Dubai’s real estate sector while ensuring a dynamic and inclusive market.

Council approved the Super Block initiative. The project focuses on transforming

designated urban areas into pro-pedestrian zones to enhance quality of life, foster

social interaction, and promote sustainable mobility.

Aligned with the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, the initiative aims to reduce

carbon emissions by designating car-free residential areas, enhancing quality of

life by increase green spaces, and fostering social interactions through shared

recreational public spaces. Areas such as Al Fahidi, Abu Hail, Al Karama, and Al
Quoz Creative Zone will be the first to benefit from the initiative.

The meeting also saw approval being accorded for the Unified Digital Platform

Initiative to integrate government digital services in Dubai under a single platform,

streamlining the user experience for residents, businesses, and visitors. The
initiative aligns with the Services 360 Policy and aims to position Dubai among

and features special portals for mobility, construction, legal affairs, and commerce.
