Dubai to host World Police Summit

Sessions next March to debate policing challenges, trends in law enforcement

The Dubai Police General Command, in partnership with dmg events and the support of the International Association of Chiefs of Police, will be hosting the World Police Summit at Dubai Exhibition Centre from March 13-16, 2022.

Held alongside Expo 2020 Dubai, the summit is a highprofile, global security event and the first of its kind to be held in the Middle East.

The integrated conference and exhibition will focus on the future of policing, public safety and security.

Lieutenant General Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri, Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police, said: “The summit is an important opportunity for senior local, regional and international police and law enforcement officials to connect with governments and policymakers to discuss the key priorities shaping the future of policing.”

Participants

The summit will be attended by leading police organisations, including Interpol, Europol and the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), as well as representatives of local, regional and international police forces and law-enforcement agencies, including the UAE’s Ministry of Interior.

The World Police Summit will feature more than 200 speakers and attract over 2,000 delegates across six strategic conferences. The plenary sessions will debate key policing and law enforcement trends and address the challenges and priorities created by smart cities, cybercrime, rapid population growth and urbanisation, evolving digital technologies, resource scarcity and the post-pandemic impact on public safety and security.

With more than 250 exhibitors and 10,000 visitors, the summit’s exhibition will deliver an opportunity for police forces and law-enforcement agencies to source and acquire the advanced technologies, services and solutions needed to ensure a safer world.
