The MBRSLP brings major acclaim to the UAE with the honour of gaining international recognition for their efforts after only the first year of the programme’s implementation.

WSIS is carried out with the aim of implementing the development goals set by the United Nations General Assembly Resolution 60/252 and the United Nations Group on the Information Society (UNGIS). The 2014 WSIS Project Prize selected only 18 winning projects, the MBRSLP being one of those winners, from over 150 projects from more than 40 countries.
