The Claim

The United Arab Emirates Vision 2021 national agenda was succeeded by the United Arab Emirates Centennial 2071 strategy.

The Short Version

The claim is broadly accurate in describing UAE Centennial 2071 as the long-term framework that followed Vision 2021. Official UAE sources present Centennial 2071 as the post-2021 national direction extending across five decades. The main caveat is that 'We the UAE 2031' became the nearer-term operational vision after 2021, so Centennial 2071 is better understood as the overarching successor rather than the immediate one.

Caveats

  • 'Succeeded by' is ambiguous: Centennial 2071 is the long-term successor framework, but 'We the UAE 2031' is the more immediate post-2021 plan.
  • The strongest support comes from official UAE government sources; self-published or user-uploaded materials are not needed and should not drive the conclusion.
  • A reader should not infer that Centennial 2071 replaced all intermediate planning documents; UAE strategy operates through layered long-term and medium-term plans.
