At the 2025 World Civil Emergency Management Summit (WCEMS), the UAE’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) turned heads with a dazzling showcase of digital tools that could give even the slickest action movie a run for its money. These aren’t your average government services — think of them as high-tech guardians for Emiratis traveling or living abroad. The stars of the show? Twajudi, Return Document, and the Early Warning System — a digital dream team designed to enhance emergency response, boost citizen support, and elevate safety standards for Emiratis across the globe.
Twajudi, meaning “My Presence,” is a smart service that allows citizens to register their travel details, ensuring MoFA knows where they are in case of a crisis — be it natural disaster, political unrest, or health emergency. When things go south, help is just a tap away. Then there’s the Return Document service, which acts like a digital lifeline for those who lose their passports or need to get back home urgently. No more embassy runarounds — it’s fast, efficient, and lifesaving. And rounding out the trio is the Early Warning System, which provides real-time alerts and safety updates tailored to each individual’s location. Whether it’s a storm, protest, or health risk, MoFA keeps its citizens one step ahead.
These innovations are more than just tech toys — they’re part of a larger mission to make sure no Emirati is ever left behind in an emergency. MoFA is embracing cutting-edge communication tools and artificial intelligence to respond faster, communicate better, and stay connected to its people, no matter where in the world they are.
At WCEMS 2025, MoFA didn’t just showcase services — it showcased vision. In a world full of unpredictable challenges, the UAE is proving it’s not just planning for emergencies — it’s digitally prepared to defeat them. With innovation leading the way, Emiratis abroad can feel more secure than ever, knowing their country is always just a click away.
