Abu Dhabi sets benchmark for safety in new survey

Deep Knowledge Group (DKG), a London-based analytical institute specialising in advanced analytics, has revealed in a new study that Abu Dhabi has come out top in the group’s rankings as the safest city in the world thanks to its response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Utilising 1,300 data points in total, the study and ranking are based on an analytical framework consisting of 50 parameters, broken into five distinct categories: Economy Resilience, Government Efficiency, Healthcare Management, Quarantine Efficiency, and Vaccination Rate.

The top ten cities are as follows:

Abu Dhabi

Singapore
Ottawa
Berlin
Tokyo

Based on data collected until Wednesday March 31, elements such as economic stability and resilience without sacrificing public safety, levels of public trust in government, and healthcare efficiency all played a role in the study with Abu Dhabi coming out on top.
