UAE Reinforces Global Role in Sustainable Development at UN Forum in New York

The United Arab Emirates reaffirmed its strong commitment to sustainable development on the world stage at the United Nations High-Level Political Forum (HLPF) on Sustainable Development held in New York. The country's delegation showcased a wide range of forward-looking initiatives, partnerships, and preparations for its next national review in 2026, with a clear message: human development and innovation are at the heart of its vision for the future. Representatives from several key UAE government bodies and organizations took part in the forum, including the Ministry of Cabinet Affairs, Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Investment, Environment Agency – Abu Dhabi, Noor Dubai Foundation, and Dubai Chambers. Their presence demonstrated the country's unified approach to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and fostering global partnerships. Pushing Forward with Innovation and Collaboration Leading the delegation, His Excellency Abdulla Nasser Lootah, Assistant Minister of Cabinet Affairs and Chair of the National Committee on SDGs, emphasized the UAE's unique model of innovation and international cooperation. He introduced new initiatives like the 2045 XDGs Report, a vision for development beyond 2030, and GEEP, a program promoting global collaboration. 'We are committed to building a sustainable, inclusive future through innovation and strong partnerships,' HE Lootah said. 'Our efforts aim to tackle key global challenges like healthcare, economic development, biodiversity, and international stability.' He also confirmed that preparations are underway for the 2026 Voluntary National Review (VNR), which will track the UAE's progress on the SDGs. The review will involve input from government, business, and civil society, reflecting the nation's dedication to transparency and teamwork. A Global Platform for Shared Progress The UAE also used the forum as a platform to showcase its global leadership. Events like the "Shaping Tomorrow: UAE Leadership for a Sustainable Future" exhibition and special sessions by GEEP helped build connections with nearly 50 countries and six international organizations. The launch of the 2045 XDGs Report stood out as a major moment, offering fresh insights and a long-term roadmap to build on the momentum of the current SDGs. This aligns with the UAE's belief that sustainable development requires both innovation and international dialogue. Addressing Key Issues: Gender, Youth, and the Environment The UAE also hosted sessions that tackled some of today's most pressing topics, including gender equality, child welfare, and digital inclusion. Discussions emphasized the role of women's leadership in driving sustainable development and the need to close the digital gender gap. The Ministry of Interior presented the Green Shield Operation, a cross-border environmental initiative to protect biodiversity in the Amazon Basin — a clear sign of the UAE's global responsibility beyond its borders. Looking Ahead The UAE is also preparing to host the UN Water Conference in December 2026, continuing its efforts to champion environmental and water sustainability. Over the course of the forum, the UAE held 48 bilateral meetings and participated in sessions like Science Day, further reinforcing its position as a leader in global cooperation. A Message to the World The HLPF serves as the UN's central platform for reviewing progress on the SDGs. For the UAE, it was an opportunity to show that sustainable development is not just a goal, but a way of working—through innovation, inclusion, and international partnership.
