The award, organised by the Dubai Municipality in collaboration with UN-Habitat,
recognises and supports the most innovative global concepts, initiatives, and
practices that enhance resilience, quality of life, and the global living
environment, thereby positively influencing the development of future cities.

H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed emphasised that the award is a reflection of
the exceptional approaches of the UAE as well as the emirate of Dubai in
embracing sustainable development concepts and practices. Its position, global
standing, and crucial role in fostering international cooperation is evidently
reflected in the creation of a common and unified area for tackling the problems
of climate change, food security, and sustainability, as well as providing access
to ground-breaking solutions for constructing futuristic sustainable societies.

H.H. highlighted that the UAE currently serves as a global role model for
sustainable and comprehensive development that places a major emphasis on
raising the quality of life and well-being of individuals, while fostering social,
economic, and urban prosperity in communities by upholding the highest
environmental standards.

Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed said, “We would like to commend all the
recipients of the Dubai International Best Practices Award for Sustainable
Development. The award successfully served as a global platform for stimulating
creative minds and inspiring individuals to design more innovative and ground-
breaking solutions that contribute to building the cities of the future. Furthermore,
this award has been instrumental in constructing inclusive communities with
sustainable and integrated health, food, environmental systems as well as digital
and smart engineering infrastructure, which help provide the best quality of life
and well-being for future generations.”
