Matteo Renzi, and H.E. Jewel Taylor, Vice President, Liberia.<\/p>\n<p>H.H. Sheikh Saud stated that the Forum was taking place at a pivotal time in the UAE\u2019s journey, as the country marks its 50th anniversary, Dubai hosts the World Expo and as preparations get under way for the UAE to stage COP28 in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>He said that Ras Al Khaimah is committed to forging relations with a multitude of global partners and that this perspective is reflective of the meaning of the Global Citizen Forum, which aims to act as a platform for bringing humanity together to collectively find solutions to the world\u2019s greatest challenges.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere in the UAE, we are a major global partner in our collective journey to build a safer and more sustainable world. I am proud to say that we have been strong advocates of positive change for the world,\u201d said H.H. Sheikh Saud.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn Ras Al Khaimah, we place sustainability at the heart of our development approach and we believe in promoting human mobility, because by welcoming the world to live, work and thrive here in Ras Al Khaimah, we become a stronger collective.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>H.H. Sheikh Saud cited Ras Al Khaimah\u2019s Energy Efficiency and Renewables Strategy 2040 and the recently launched Sustainable Tourism Destination Strategy as important drivers that will lead the Emirate to a prosperous and sustainable future.<\/p>\n<p>He also highlighted the Ras Al Khaimah Sustainability Pledge, which was signed by 21 Government and non-Government entities in the Emirate at the Global Citizen Forum, as another step towards ingraining the sustainability message in all institutions.<\/p>\n<p>The 2021 Global Citizen Forum takes place over two days on December 12 and 13 at Al Hamra International Exhibition &amp; Convention Center, welcoming a host of renowned figures in various sectors, including former footballer Clarence Seedorf, with performances by singers Nicole Scherzinger and Wyclef Jean.
