Working, living, tourism – Dubai has emerged as a hub for all aspects of life. With state-
of-the-art facilities, stunning skyscrapers, advanced means of transport, efficient law
and order, and a constant vision of what the future beholds, the emirate has emerged
as a leading destination for individuals from all walks of life and parts of the world.

But how did the emirate get to the position it now holds? Dubai's development was a
project with major contributions by the late Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum,
former Vice President and Prime Minister of UAE, and former Ruler of Dubai. And to
document the life of this visionary, a new project has been launched.

Titled ‘Documenting the Legacy of Sheikh Rashid', the project has been launched by
Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai,
Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defence of the UAE, and Chairman of The
Executive Council of Dubai, along with the Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum
Knowledge Foundation (MBRF).
