During the Expo, the UN will organise programmes, workshops and exhibitions highlighting the importance of partnerships between international organisations and governments from around the world, including the UAE government, and the private sector and civil societies.

The Opportunity Pavilion, centrepiece of the Opportunity District, focuses on three areas – water, food and energy.

It aims to highlight how people and communities can help to improve these areas that are so crucial to humanity.
