Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has highlighted the significant role of healthcare professionals in responding to emergencies and maintaining healthcare systems. In Dubai, special focus is given to recovery from the pandemic and the health of healthcare professionals is being prioritized. A Policy Brief titled “Building Mental Resilience among Healthcare Professionals during Emergencies in Dubai” was published on the 27th April 2021. The brief addressed the policy problem, its underlying factors and best available evidence on policy options to address them. Then a Policy Council Dialogue  was organized with key stakeholders to gather their input on the brief findings and recommendations. 
This paper presents a summary of the Policy Council Dialogue  deliberations and future steps to implementing the policy elements.
