As at previous Expos, the host country proposes an overarching theme to maximise the impact of the Expo and to ensure a lasting legacy. The theme for Expo 2020 Dubai - Connecting Minds, Creating the Future - seeks to engage young people of all backgrounds to recognise the potential of what can be achieved when meaningful collaborations and partnerships are forged.
The theme recognises that today’s challenges are far too complex to be solved in isolation, and that the creation of sustainable solutions to global problems demands readiness to reach out across geographies, institutional boundaries, industry clusters, cultures and disciplines.

The Expo site is split into three themed districts: Opportunity, Mobility and Sustainability.
Opportunity is about unlocking the potential within individuals and communities to shape a better future. It encompasses areas such as education, employment, new industries, financial capital and governance.
Mobility focuses on smarter and more productive movement of people, goods and ideas, tackling areas such as transportation, travel and exploration, personal mobility, logistics and digital connectivity.
Sustainability explores living in balance with our planet. As such, this sub-theme encompasses innovations and practices protecting our ecosystems, as well as effectively managing resources and tackling the effects of climate change, creating lasting benefits for future generations.
