DEWA to spotlight Dubai as global green economy capital at WGES

The seventh iteration of the World Green Economy Summit (WGES) will be organised by the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) and the World Green Economy Organisation (WGEO) in collaboration with the Dubai Supreme Council of Energy (DSCE) and the UN Development Programme (UNDP) on 6 and 7 October 2021 at Expo 2020 Dubai.

This edition of the WGES is expected to have a broader scale as it will be held in conjunction with the World Expo, and will aim to consolidate Dubai's position as a global capital for a green economy.

The event - which is an important global platform that enhances partnerships among key decision makers, and spurs collaboration between regional and international organisations in the public and private sectors, driving a shift towards a green economy - will be held under the patronage of HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
