Damascus: Syrian President Bashar Al Assad met with representatives from the Dubai School of Government on Thursday, ahead of the signing of an agreement that will bring together Syrian government officials with the school's faculty and experts for training.
The school's researchers will also explore Syrian public policy issues. Nabeel Ali Al Yousuf, vice chairman of the board of trustees and executive president of the school, led the delegation to Damascus, where he discussed a memorandum of understanding that opens the way for cooperation between the Harvard-linked Dubai School and various ministries and administrative authorities within the Syrian government.
"The Dubai School ... has a vital role to play in strengthening public policy and management in the Arab world," Al Yousuf said.
His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has offered to share the emirate's management expertise with the countries in the region.
