A report has confirmed that for the seventh year running, the UAE is the top choice for Arab youths to want to live.

Followed by the United States and then Canada, the poll prepared by Burson-Marsteller lists safety, security and career growth as the top reasons for choosing the UAE as number one.

16 countries in the MENA region were polled in the ASDA’A  Burson-Marsteller Arab Youth 2018 survey, which also aims to understand the feelings of 200 million Arab youths.

Dubai’s ruler HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum was briefed on the survey

Key findings from the survey

The group conducted 3,500 face to face interviews with Arabs between the ages of 18 and 24, with a 50/50 male/female split.

*The past decade – shaped by the Arab Spring and Daesh – has left the ME drifting off course

* To steer the region in the right direction, action is needed on jobs, education, government, corruption and the fight against terror

*Young Arabs see Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman as a strong leader who will shape the next decade

*Arab Youth overwhelmingly welcome the move to allow women to drive in Saudi Arabia, but say more must be done to address women’s rights throughout the region
