The speakers argued that such initiatives aim to build a better future and bring about
significant transformations in communities, education, healthcare and economies,

resulting in sustained growth, prosperity and stability. The sessions also stressed the
importance of innovating global models to shape a better future that empowers the

people, drives progress across all aspects of life, and establishes principles of
international cooperation.

Speakers stressed the urgent need for innovative solutions to societal challenges,
advocating for strengthened international development initiatives that leverage the

combined capacities of government agencies, private institutions, and international
organisations across key humanitarian and developmental areas.

In the "Human-centric Futures: Building Experts for the New Economy" session, Abdullah

bin Touq Al Marri, Minister of Economy, emphasised the nation's belief in its people as

its true wealth. “The UAE has prioritised enhancing citizen capabilities and skills,
encouraging their contributions across all sectors, particularly the economy,” Al Marri

stated. “This aligns with the ‘We the UAE 2031’ vision, which aims to make the UAE the
most prosperous nation within a decade.

”

He continued, “The UAE National Experts Program is a pioneering global model that

enriches vital areas of both national priorities and global trends. The programme seeks

to optimise investment in the human capital as a key source of wealth that contributes
positively to development. It also focuses on innovatively developing the necessary

skills of its participants. Flexible and adaptable, the programme supports creating
innovative solutions to navigating potential future challenges.”

In the “Cooperative Pathways to Sustainable Development” session, Reem bint Ibrahim

Al Hashimy, Minister of State for International Cooperation, explained that the world's
focus on sustainable development involves meeting present needs while protecting

future generations. This requires building robust systems and formulating international

policies that balance economic growth, social integration, and environmental
preservation.

She noted the 17th Sustainable Development Goal’s focus on the inevitability of global

partnership between governments, the private sector and civil society institutions,
necessitating accelerated international cooperation in developmental fields more than

ever before.
