The World Islamic Economic Forum foundation has informed that the host, Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development (ADDED) has called off the 14th World Islamic Economic Forum (WIEF), which was scheduled to be held in Abu Dhabi from 6 to 8 February 2024.
The main objective of the foundation is to enhance the economic well-being of Muslim nations through encouraging trade and business opportunities, not only among themselves, but also with the world at large.
