Advancing community wellbeing and opportunity in Al Dhannah City For decades, ADNOC has played a central role in the development of Al Dhannah City, contributing to the wellbeing, resilience and long-term prosperity of its community. In 2025, we continued to scale this approach. Strengthening community engagement and communication ADNOC placed community engagement at the center of its approach through structured platforms such as “Hayakom fi Majlisna”, enabling direct dialogue with residents to capture feedback on services, infrastructure, and community priorities. In addition, a dedicated digital platform enabled continuous two-way communication, improving accessibility of services and strengthening responsiveness to community needs. Promoting health and active lifestyles ADNOC advanced community wellbeing through flagship initiatives including the Al Dhannah 10K Flat Out Run and the Al Dhannah Fun Run. The Flat Out Run attracted nearly 2,500 participants and over 400 residents participated in the Fun Run. Together, these initiatives strengthen social cohesion and position Al Dhannah as a growing hub for community sports and wellbeing. Expanding access to education and opportunity Education remained a key priority in 2025. We strengthened academic and professional support for UAE Nationals in the Al Dhafra region, while helping create job opportunities. In this context, we introduced the ADNOC Technical Academy in Al Dhannah as a key hub linking education, skills development and employment pathways, supporting a more integrated approach to national talent development. In addition, we have leveraged strategic partnerships to expand access to educational opportunities and create greater flexibility in responding to the needs of the Al Dhannah community. We worked with the Ministry of Education to enable a more flexible admissions process for government schools. In parallel, collaboration with the Zayed Authority for People of Determination delivered inclusivity awareness sessions and sign language training. These combined efforts are reflected in sustained improvements in community sentiment, as measured through surveys conducted by the Abu Dhabi Department of Community Development. Overall resident satisfaction reached 81% in 2025, a 3% increase from the previous year, and we continued to see positive progress across key quality - of - life dimensions, including safety, education and family wellbeing. Over the past three years, ADNOC has demonstrated consistent improvement in these outcomes, achieving one of the highest satisfaction scores in the Al Dhafra region.
