In the near future, the emirate of Dubai aims for all Emiratis to receive diverse and modern housing services, and it will create innovative housing solutions according to the emerging needs of society. The emirate will adopt urban planning best practices for Emirati neighborhoods, which will support community cohesion, achieve ease of access and interconnection across services as well as promote healthy lifestyles. Culture has been a prime focal point in all the plans launched by the city since 2007, given its importance in enhancing quality of life for any ambitious city. Dubai aims to continue strengthening its cultural offering in the coming years to further boost the quality of life in line with the needs of all its residents. At the heart of this is the development of local cultural content that is rooted in the rich Emirati culture, which will enhance Dubai’s position as a global hub for creative industries, increasing the sector’s economic contribution and further fortify Dubai’s standing as a global city. 
Alongside culture, the city also continues to support sports, given their importance to the healthy lifestyles that Dubai wishes for its young and diverse society, adding yet another dimension to the city’s identity.
