The emirate of Ajman obtained these prestigious certifications after completing the evaluation process in accordance with approved international standards, and satisfying more than 170 indicators in the economic, developmental, urban, social, environmental, technical, and service aspects, the thing which enabled the emirate to maintain its advanced ranking on the World City Index platform, accredited by the international organization.
