Economic Policy Formulation Analysis - Project No. 51536

<< Back

The economy of Dubai is experiencing unprecedented growth and structural changes as the Emirate strives to be an active player in the global trading system. In this context, the management of the economy and sound decision-making require continuous and thorough analyses of the economic and the business environment. This has led to the creation of the Economic Policy Unit (EPU) of the Executive Office of Dubai to whom UNDP UAE has provided technical assistance (since 2005) for the development of an economic dataset and modeling tools as well for staff training in economic analysis and forecasting. Moreover, UNDP UAE also contributed to the drafting of the Dubai Economic Development Plan (EDP) 2005-2015. More recently, a scoping mission has been conducted for the establishment of the Dubai Statistics Centre.
