Dubai Enacts New Law to Strengthen Public Health and Prevent Disease

His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has issued a new law designed to establish a robust framework for safeguarding public health and enhancing disease prevention across the emirate.

The law aims to promote community well-being by prioritizing preventative healthcare measures, improving environmental and food safety standards, and fostering sustainable practices that contribute to an improved quality of life for residents and visitors.

This strategic legislation underscores Dubai’s commitment to ensuring cooperation at all levels — from governmental entities to private sector partners and individuals — in confronting current and emerging health risks and challenges.

It also aligns with the emirate's broader vision of creating a healthy and sustainable environment that supports lifestyle aspirations, attracts global investment, and enhances Dubai’s competitiveness in the field of public health.

By institutionalizing best practices in public health management, the law reflects the UAE’s long-term objectives of reinforcing healthcare resilience, promoting wellness, and positioning the nation as a global leader in quality-of-life metrics.
