Dubai puts in place 50-year plan up to 2071

Dubai’s Government has shown its forward thinking-prowess with its launch of a 50-year plan known as The UAE Centennial 2071 project, the year which will be the nation’s 100th anniversary.

It sets a clear map for long-term government work and aims to make the United Arab Emirates the best country in the world. The plan is based on four aspects: education, economy, government development and community cohesion.

Launching the plan, His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice- President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, said: “Today we launched the UAE Centennial 2071 project to put in place a vision that extends to five decades to prepare the nation for future generations.

“The goal is for future generations to live a happier life in a better environment, with bigger opportunities and stronger communication with the world. UAE Centennial 2071 is based on four aspects: education, economy, government development, and community cohesion. The goal is for the UAE to be the best country in the world by 2071,” he added.

Community development is an integral part of the UAE Centennial 2071. Some objectives in this regard include establishing a secure, tolerant, cohesive and ethical society that embraces happiness and a positive lifestyle and a high quality of life. This pillar also focuses on developing programmes to prepare future generations to serve as the UAE’s goodwill ambassadors, as well as promoting women's participation in all sectors.
