Dubai Household Health Survey

The Dubai Household Health survey is a scientific practice that is regularly implemented by healthcare organisations worldwide, such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and the World Bank; that’s to obtain accurate and reliable data related to the health of individuals, families, and communities, through direct field visits to selected samples of households ensuring an accurate representation of Dubai's population in terms of demographics and social distribution.

Hayat

The National Program for Donation and Transplantation of Human Organs and Tissues – HAYAT- is a humanitarian initiative that encourages organ and tissue donation. It provides hope and a new life to those in need of organ donation. UAE nationals and residents over the age of 21 can support saving lives through organ donation by registering as an organ donor. As part of this program, organ donation is possible from deceased donors after obtaining the consent from the donor’s family.

The program was created in accordance with a Federal Decree law passed in 2016, in order to realize the country's objective to be a role model in the field of human organ and tissue donation and transplantation. The program aims to regulate the process of donation and transplantation of human organs and tissues, in addition to develop and provide care for patients with organ deficiencies.
