His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and the Ruler of Dubai, and His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, attended the signing of two agreements between Expo 2020 Dubai and the Ministries of Interior and Defence aimed at strengthening collaboration in preparation for Expo 2020 to be held in October this year. As part of the objectives of promoting greater community engagement in Expo 2020, the agreements seek to provide government employees and their families opportunities to participate in the celebrations featured at the event.
On the occasion, Their Highnesses urged the UAE community and government organisations to take full advantage of opportunities provided by Expo 2020 to enrich themselves with knowledge of the latest innovations and cutting-edge developments that will be showcased at the event. Expo 2020 will bring together 200 countries to discuss how they can work together to shape a better future for humanity.
H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum and H.H. Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan praised the efforts undertaken by government entities to develop various incentive programmes that encourage employees and their families to engage in the educational, cultural, and creative experiences that the six-month Expo 2020 Dubai will offer from its opening on 20 October this year. These entities have also contributed to helping bring the theme of the first World Expo in the Arab world – ‘Connecting Minds, Creating the Future’ – to life.
