MUSCAT : The initiative aims to strengthen community partnership and empower local roles in implementing the national goals outlined in Oman Vision 2040.

Held at the Oman Convention and Exhibition Centre, the three-day event brings together government and social entities, stakeholders, youth, and community representatives in a collaborative setting focused on decentralization, sustainable development, and improved governance.

In his opening address, His Excellency Al Busaidi explained that the initiative represents a vital step toward translating the ambitions of Vision 2040 into tangible results through open dialogue and integrated efforts. He pointed out that achieving development goals and implementing strategic plans can only be accomplished through such meetings.

He stressed that Muscat Governorate prioritises development projects tailored to its diverse demographic and economic foundations, and the initiative will help develop a roadmap rooted in institutional and community participation, with a focus on improving services and boosting satisfaction levels.

Also speaking at the event, His Excellency Dr. Khamis bin Saif Al Jabri, Head of the Oman Vision 2040 Implementation Follow-up Unit, said the initiative reflects effective community partnership across all governorates and highlights the priority of developing sustainable cities and local empowerment. He also noted that the initiative focused on empowering local communities and enhancing the governorates’ role in development.

The initiative’s activities included specialised, knowledge-transfer-oriented workshops aimed at building capacity of the governorate’s employees and target audiences from various sectors, such as planning, project management, and vision follow-up offices in relevant institutions within the governorate.
The ‘All Oman’ initiative in Muscat highlights Oman’s broader push to decentralize decision-making, align development strategies with local needs, and foster inclusive, sustainable growth through active public engagement.
