Dubai Camp drives next phase of government innovation

His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defence of the UAE, has attended the second edition of Dubai Camp, an annual strategic forum bringing together senior Dubai Government officials.

The camp focuses on boosting government performance and innovation, while aligning priorities with the Dubai Social Agenda and the Dubai Economic Agenda D33 — which aims to make Dubai the best city in the world to live and work.

Sheikh Hamdan called on government entities to step up efforts, speed up the delivery of key projects, and achieve clear results within set timelines, reinforcing Dubai’s global competitiveness.

Discussions at the forum covered sustainable urban development, smart transport, clean energy and integrated communities, as well as the growing role of data, technology and artificial intelligence in city management.

Officials also explored ways to enhance government services through digital solutions, strengthen public-private partnerships, advance healthcare innovation and promote preventive medicine.

Citizens’ wellbeing was highlighted as a top priority, with a focus on policies that support economic and social empowerment, expand opportunities and improve quality of life.

Sheikh Hamdan described Dubai Camp as an important platform to review priorities, strengthen collaboration and shape the next phase of the emirate’s development.
