The project, promoted by the Abu Dhabi Department for Culture and Tourism (DCT), has defined a strategy, design guidelines, strategic urban projects and regulations for the conservation and enhancement of the Buffer Zone of Al Qattara and Al Jimi Oases. Within the same study, a specific analysis was carried out on some settlements built between the 60s and 80s, referring to the National Housing Program: the Shaabiyat. For these buildings and settlements detailed guidelines and pilot projects have been developed in order to protect their urban, morphological and architectural characteristics.
