Authorities in Dubai are taking steps to increase efficiency of response when it comes to emergency
situations. Multiple agreements have been signed between relevant parties to enhance readiness in
the emirate.

The memoranda of understanding (MOUs) were signed between the Dubai Resilience Centre and
the National Center of Meteorology, Dubai Land Department (DLD), and Hamdan Bin Mohammed
Smart University (HBMSU), under the patronage and presence of Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed

bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai’s Supreme Committee of Crisis and Disaster
Management.
