In the presence of H.H. Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Dubai Judicial Institute (DJI), the leading centre of law studies and judicial training in Dubai and member of the General Network of Government Communication (GNGC), launched its official e-portal to serve as a reference for the legal and judicial community in Dubai and the UAE. The launch of the e-portal was held as one of the highlights of DJI's participation -as part of Dubai eGovernment's stand - at GITEX Technology Week 2011, that was held this month in Dubai.

The portal aims to reinforce the image of the Institute as a regional hub for legal and judicial excellence and create better understanding of the importance of the legal system in the society. It will also promote greater awareness about the establishment of strategic partnerships with similar institutions in the region and relevant international and governmental bodies and private organizations, as well as the introduction of ongoing training programs and legal and judicial diploma programs specially developed in line with the requirements and needs of trainees from various stakeholders in the judicial and legal system.

Commenting on the project, Judge Dr. Jamal Al Sumaiti, Director General of Dubai Judicial Institute, said: "We are honored to launch the e-portal in the presence of H.H. Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum which encourages us to continue to work hard to maintain the level of excellence and leadership that we were able to achieve locally and regionally in the field of judicial training and human capital development. The e-portal initiative is critically important as it serves as a tool to expand our reach across the region and eventually gain international presence. Moreover, it is particularly invaluable as we aim to enhance the role of knowledge management in the development of intellectual capital and finding ways to further drive creativity."

"We were keen to adopt innovative mechanisms to develop the site's content in line with the highest quality standards, while achieving our goals in terms of thoroughness, credibility, efficiency and simplicity. We also look forward to continue to develop and update the e-portal to serve our plans of cultivating a culture of justice, making positive changes in the local community and reinforcing the position of Dubai and the UAE as a center of legal and judicial excellence," he added.
