In an era of rapid urban transformation, city leaders must move beyond reactive governance to anticipate climate impacts, technological disruption and shifting social dynamics. This interactive workshop launches the Global Report on Municipal Trends, a landmark Dubai Municipality initiative. Framed as a co-creative lab, it invites participants to explore key findings on AI in governance, sustainable municipal finance and the future of city workforces. Designed for senior administrators, planners, policy advisors and development organisations, the session fosters peer-to-peer collaboration and equips leaders with practical foresight tools to build resilient, future-ready cities.
