Expo 2020 Dubai will be remembered as a turning point – a game-changing initiative that helped to define humanity’s collective future.
As our city prepares to welcome people from across the globe to the World’s Greatest Show, what is defining about the event to me is that it pronounces with confidence that we – as a collective human race –have the resolve and resilience to build a stronger future together.
After having witnessed one of the most challenging periods in recent memory, the world is hungry for the excitement, buzz, vibrancy and promise of a celebration which delivers hope and optimism. That milestone is the Expo 2020 Dubai, which proclaims that when we put our hearts and minds into addressing any challenge, we can overcome it.
As a nation that leads in every development index in the region – and in many globally – the UAE has set a sterling role model for all. Serving as a beacon of hope for humanity, the nation has demonstrated its mettle in overcoming the challenges and reaching for the stars. This is the result of big dreams, strong resolve, and the tangible development the nation has made in creating a stable, forward-thinking society.
