Abu Dhabi Housing Authority Unveils Innovative Digital Services At GITEX Global 2024

The Abu Dhabi Housing Authority (ADHA) is presenting its latest digital services and initiatives at GITEX Global 2024. This event is known for showcasing innovations from international technology organisations. It also offers a chance to explore advancements that can improve the government housing sector and enhance the experience for Abu Dhabi's citizens.

ADHA is part of the Abu Dhabi Government’s pavilion, offering visitors an immersive digital experience. This includes everything from submitting applications to accessing housing benefits through the ‘ISKAN Abu Dhabi’ app. The aim is to streamline the housing journey for citizens.

In collaboration with Teyaseer, ADHA provides free services to beneficiaries of housing loan programmes. This partnership allows citizens to navigate the home-building process using Teyaseer’s digital platform. The platform covers all construction stages, from identifying requirements to final house delivery.

A new feature on ADHA's digital platform will soon allow citizens to express their housing preferences for current and future locations. By registering their interest, they gain priority access to housing benefits in chosen areas, provided they meet ADHA’s criteria.

This service will help optimise resource allocation by focusing developments in high-demand areas. The feature is expected to launch before year-end, enhancing how resources are distributed based on citizen demand.

ADHA plans to introduce automated systems for residential land exchanges between citizens, making the process fully digital. Eligible citizens can choose from available land options for exchange, either directly or from government inventory, via the ISKAN Abu Dhabi application.

Strategic Vision and Community Engagement

Hamad Hareb AlMuhairi, Director-General of ADHA, stated, "The Authority’s participation in GITEX Global 2024 comes as a key part of our strategy to showcase our digital offerings and forthcoming smart solutions, designed to streamline access of housing benefits for citizens."

He further added that GITEX serves as an ideal platform for engaging with stakeholders and specialists. It helps gather public feedback on ADHA’s services and ensures they meet evolving community needs. This aligns with their vision of creating a sustainable housing system fostering family cohesion and stability.
