THE UAE Team
Rationale for Study Group
The study group will comprise of UAE adult residents, with an aim to ensure that at least 12% of them are Emirati nationals to reflect the population distribution in the country. The rationale to study this subgroup is to reflect the needs of the adult population, since the science of aging and longevity is relevant to them. The results of this study will directly impact this population and help formulate policies and programs. Aiming to include both Emiratis and expats is to ensure that a clear reflection of the needs, knowledge and attitudes of the different population is taken into account.
