In September 2024, the UAE participated in a session at the United Nations’ Summit of the Future Action Days. H.E. Omar Sultan Al Olama, Minister of State for Artificial Intelligence, Digital Economy, and Remote Work Applications who participated in a key discussion at the session said, “The Global Digital Compact serves as a vital roadmap for action. The UAE is committed to being a strong partner in achieving an open, free, and secure digital future.”

 

 

In addition, the UAE hosted the ‘Arab Consultative Conference and Expert Meetings on the World Summit on the Information Society +20 (WSIS+20) Review and Global Digital Compact Processes’ in 2024.

 

Further, as part of its collaboration with the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) and the League of Arab States, a delegation from the Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority (TDRA) participated in the regional meetings held in Jordan in February 2025.

 

The meetings addressed several key topics, including:

  • The High-Level Arab Summit Forum for reviewing the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS +20) and the 2030 Agenda
  • review of the Global Digital Compact and
  • The 7th Arab Internet Governance Forum.

 

This participation reflects TDRA’s commitment to supporting regional efforts in enhancing digital governance, developing digital transformation strategies, and ensuring a sustainable future for the telecommunications and technology sector in the Arab world.
