“His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has laid down the foundation for the government of the future when said: A Government cannot build sustainable development for its people without actual involvement of the youth. He looked at the youth as key partner in development, which is what we aim to enhance and promote through Dubai Forum for Government Best Practice and other programs organized by DGEP which aim to promote concepts of pioneering in government work, and enabling youth to undertake their active national role, as well as support them as a key foundation for the future”, he added.
