Intelligence / Research & Resources

A research library for AI in the UAE and beyond

Real papers, government strategies, standards, datasets and guides - not summaries dressed up as sources. Every entry links to its own official publication, carries Nakoda's honest read of why it matters, and says plainly how far we checked it.

Where to start

A handful of entries Nakoda comes back to most - the strategy every other UAE AI policy sits under, the standard procurement teams now ask for, and the research that shows the UAE building, not only regulating.

Reading paths

Curated sequences

Five ways through the library

Not tags - sequences. Each path is a small set of resources Nakoda has put in a specific order, with our own framing for why that order makes sense. Read a whole path, or use it as a syllabus and read at your own pace.

How this library works

Editorial method

Nakoda writes none of what is catalogued here

Every entry in this library is a real, independently published paper, government report, standard, dataset, whitepaper, guide, book or policy document. Nakoda redistributes none of it: every official link goes to the publisher’s own page, never a mirror or a paywalled reseller, and no PDF is hosted on this site.

What Nakoda adds is editorial: why a document matters, what its key findings are in plain language, and - honestly, not by default - whether it has a genuine UAE or MENA angle. That analysis is always written in Nakoda’s own voice and never blended into a paraphrase of the source. Each record also carries a verification state, reused from the same scale the Ecosystem directory uses, and says plainly when a link was checked and when a claim is still an open question.
