										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Emirates Central Cooling Systems Corporation PJSC (Empower), the world’s largest district cooling services provider, has awarded a contract to commence excavation and foundation works for its new district cooling plant at <a href="https://dubaiverse.io/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dubai</a> Science Park. This forms part of the company’s expansion plans to meet the growing demand for environmentally friendly district cooling services in key locations across Dubai. Upon completion, the new plant will have a total cooling capacity of approximately 47,000 refrigeration tons (RT), serving nearly 80 mixed-use buildings in the area.</p>
<p>The new plant represents a significant addition to Empower’s expanding district cooling infrastructure in Dubai, reflecting the company’s ongoing commitment to enhancing and expanding its services to meet the cooling needs of diverse sectors and developments across the emirate. The plant will also support the continued growth of Dubai Science Park, a specialised hub for companies and institutions operating in the fields of science, technology, research, and innovation. As the park continues to expand, demand for district cooling services is expected to increase, reinforcing the need for reliable, efficient, and sustainable cooling solutions that meet the operational requirements of the facilities and establishments.</p>
<p>“Awarding this contract marks a new milestone in the implementation of our carefully planned expansion strategy and the development of advanced district cooling infrastructure that keeps pace with Dubai’s rapid growth across various sectors and specialised communities. The Dubai Science Park project holds particular significance due to the dynamic environment it provides for business, research, and innovation, which requires infrastructure characterised by efficiency, reliability, and adaptability, and capable of meeting both current and future needs,” said <strong><b>H.E. Ahmad Bin Shafar, CEO of Empower</b></strong>.</p>
<p>“At Empower, we ensure that our expansions contribute to enhancing energy and resource efficiency and supporting the development of more sustainable buildings and communities. We continue to deploy advanced technologies across our new plants to improve operational efficiency and reduce resource consumption and emissions, thereby strengthening Dubai’s infrastructure readiness and supporting the emirate’s sustainable development and green economy goals,” he added.</p>
<p>Empower’s new plant at Dubai Science Park will utilise a range of advanced technologies that the company has developed and implemented across its operations,, including thermal energy storage systems, the use of treated sewage effluent, and artificial intelligence (AI) enabled smart solutions. These technologies will help optimise the load on the power grid during peak periods, reduce fresh water consumption, and enhance the plant’s operational efficiency and sustainability.</p>
<p>This project aligns with Empower’s strategy to continuously expand and enhance its district cooling network and cooling capacity while extending service coverage to areas experiencing rapid urban and economic growth. It will enable the company to meet future demand for district cooling services and support the development of sustainable, highly efficient infrastructure n line with Dubai’s long-term development objectives.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Latakia is set for a new generation of coastal living and hospitality with Eco Life, a project developed by Eagle Hills, led by Emirati businessman Mohamed Alabbar, founder of Emaar Properties and one of the region’s leading developers of destinations and integrated communities. The project follows a framework agreement signed yesterday between Eagle Hills and the Syrian Ministry of Tourism, in the presence of President Ahmad Al-Sharaa, at the People’s Palace in Damascus.</p>
<p><strong><b>An Integrated Vision for Coastal Living</b></strong></p>
<p>Eco Life presents an integrated vision for a coastal destination centred on a yacht marina and waterfront, combining hospitality facilities, villas, residential complexes and entertainment, alongside internal lakes and water features surrounded by buildings and units overlooking the water. The design places the sea and water at the heart of the destination’s experience and lifestyle.</p>
<p>Syrian Minister of Tourism Mazen Al-Salhani said the current concept represents the project’s initial vision, which will continue to evolve during the design phase. He noted that construction is targeted to begin within around five to six months, once the plans, procedures and land handover are complete.</p>
<p><strong><b>A Broader Economic Impact</b></strong></p>
<p>Al-Salhani said the project’s most significant impact will be the economy that grows around the destination, from hotels, restaurants, entertainment, transport and events to suppliers, entrepreneurs, services and local businesses, making tourism investment a driver of broader economic activity and giving surrounding communities a greater role in, and benefit from, the growth of tourism.</p>
<p>Initial official estimates indicate that the Latakia project could generate more than 40,000 direct and indirect jobs, including over 10,000 permanent positions. Al-Salhani said that working with international investors and expertise also opens the door to knowledge transfer, capacity building and developing the skills of Syrian talent in hospitality and destination management.</p>
<p>The Syrian coast has a diverse base for developing tourism products that combine the sea, mountains, nature, cultural heritage, cities, villages and local experiences. Developing integrated destinations can extend the tourism season, diversify the reasons for visiting, and strengthen the region’s ability to attract investment and different tourism segments.</p>
<p>The project’s development comes as the Ministry of Tourism works to convert rising tourism demand into investment, capacity and new products and experiences, with a central role for the private sector in construction, operations and innovation, supporting a broader economy led by growth in the tourism sector.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="https://www.uaetoday.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">United Arab Emirates</a> continued to build momentum towards the 2026 United Nations Water Conference through a series of high-level engagements during the 81st Session of the United Nations General Assembly and New York Climate Week, bringing together governments, businesses, investors, innovators, humanitarian organizations, researchers, students, and civil society.</p>
<p>Led by H.E. Abdulla Balalaa, UAE Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs for Energy and Sustainability, the programme included a high-level session at United Nations Headquarters with H.E. Reem Al Hashimy, focused on strengthening collective action on water ahead of the Conference.</p>
<p>H.E. Balalaa and H.E. Badr Jafar, UAE Special Envoy on Business and Philanthropy, also convened more than 50 investors and C-suite leaders to discuss how greater investment can be unlocked for water. H.E. Balalaa separately joined business and investment leaders for a World Economic Forum Year of Water roundtable and delivered a keynote as part of the initiative.</p>
<p>Technology also featured throughout the week. At Goals House, H.E. Balalaa joined leaders from Microsoft, 500 Global, and Xatoms to discuss how innovation, investment, and responsible resource management must advance together. Separately, a discussion at the UAE Permanent Mission to the UN explored how AI can support areas including hydrological forecasting, flood planning, drought response, irrigation management, and more effective water allocation.</p>
<p>H.E. Balalaa also participated in the US Chamber of Commerce’s convening on the role of technology in addressing the global water challenge and joined Ian Bremmer for a fireside conversation at the Clinton Global Initiative Annual Meeting focused on water as a driver of economic opportunity.</p>
<p>At Goals House, Shaima Gargash, Director of Energy and Sustainability at the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs, hosted a discussion on the role of culture, sport, and storytelling in engaging wider audiences around water.</p>
<p>Further engagements included a dedicated discussion on water as a tool for peace and investment in fragile and humanitarian settings, as well as a meeting between H.E. Balalaa and students from New York University and other academic institutions on the role of youth in driving innovation and action on water.</p>
<p>These engagements form part of the UAE’s wider programme on the road to the 2026 United Nations Water Conference, co-hosted by the UAE and Senegal in Abu Dhabi from 8–10 December.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE) concluded its participation in the Ru’ya Careers UAE 2026 by honouring the winning teams of the Green Innovation Challenge. Organised by the Ministry, the three-day event aimed to empower high school students to design innovative, <a href="https://www.aiunplugged.io/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AI</a>-enabled solutions to tackle pressing environmental and societal challenges.</p>
<p>Her Excellency Dr. Amal Abdulrahim, Assistant Undersecretary for the Support Services Sector and Chief AI and Innovation Officer at MOCCAE, attended the final project presentations and the awards ceremony, held at the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) from 28 to 30 September 2026.</p>
<p><strong><b>Her Excellency Dr. Amal Abdulrahim</b></strong> said: “The Green Innovation Challenge reflects the Ministry’s approach to engaging youth as genuine partners in building a more sustainable future, helping them move from recognising environmental challenges to solving them. Investing in youth’s capabilities isn’t just about preparing them for future jobs, it is about giving them the tools, expertise, and space to shape that future, connecting their scientific knowledge and creativity to national priorities in climate, food security, biodiversity, circular economy, and environmental protection.”</p>
<p><strong><b>Her Excellency added: </b></strong>“Students used artificial intelligence as a tool to understand problems, analyse them, and design more efficient, applicable solutions, not as an end in itself. A distinctive part of the experience was a comprehensive development journey, testing assumptions, refining solutions, assessing expected impact, and presenting the work clearly to experts. That journey doesn’t end with Ru’ya. We are now building tailored support pathways for the winning teams, connecting them with mentors, technical experts, incubators, and innovation partners, while exploring ways to develop and showcase their work through the Ministry’s platforms and future events. Our goal is to turn high-potential ideas into solutions with real environmental and societal impact.”</p>
<p>The Green Innovation Challenge formed the central pillar of the Ministry’s participation in the Ru’ya Careers UAE 2026. It targeted high school students from public and private schools across the UAE with interests in artificial intelligence, sustainability, environmental protection, food security, smart agriculture, biodiversity, circular economy, and innovation.</p>
<p><strong><b>Five Tracks</b></strong></p>
<p>The challenge focused on five tracks reflecting priority areas in national environmental action, including Climate‑Smart Communities; Food Security and Smart Agriculture; Biodiversity and Ecosystem Protection; Circular Economy and Waste Reduction; and Environmental Monitoring and Awareness.</p>
<p>The challenge aimed to transform academic knowledge, creative ideas, school projects, and early environmental initiatives into practical, scalable proposals, while enhancing participants’ skills in artificial intelligence, innovation, entrepreneurship, teamwork, problem‑solving, project pitching, and engagement with experts and evaluation panels.</p>
<p>The journey of the challenge began before Ru’ya Careers UAE 2026, with outreach to schools across the country and an open call for applications. It received approximately 160 applications from students at public, private and technical schools across the UAE. Submissions were assessed on the basis of their relevance to the challenge tracks, originality, use of AI, feasibility, and potential environmental and community impact. Seven projects were then selected for the three-day development programme at the exhibition and to present their solutions to the judging panel.</p>
<p>On the first day, teams presented their initial ideas and learned the fundamentals of building an effective project presentation. They then worked hands-on with Ministry experts and partners to sharpen their problem definitions, strengthen proposed solutions, articulate their value, and map out expected impact and implementation pathways.</p>
<p>Day two featured tailored mentoring sessions led by experts from the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment. Matched to each project’s domain and technical needs, the sessions focused on refining solutions, assessing feasibility, and strengthening AI integration. Students also received practical guidance on presenting ideas, structuring their narratives, managing time, and responding to jury questions, supported by rehearsal simulations and direct feedback from experts.</p>
<p>On the final day, teams presented their projects to a panel of experts and responded to questions before solutions were evaluated against the established criteria. HE Dr. Amal Abdulrahim honoured the winners for combining innovation and technology with environmental insight, transforming initial ideas into clear, scalable proposals with potential societal and ecological impact.</p>
<p><strong><b>Winning Projects</b></strong></p>
<p>First place went to ‘NAWA’, developed by Abdulrahman Al Awadhi, Mohammad Al Attar and Hamdan Al Awadhi of Dubai National School – Al Barsha. Their app encourages school and university students to collect recyclable materials and document them through the app in return for points, badges and rewards. It also introduces rankings for students and schools to help make recycling an engaging everyday habit.</p>
<p>Second place went to ‘Agri-Compass’, developed by Mahra Hamdan Al Qaidi and Fatima Dawood Al Qaidi of Zayed Educational Complex – Al Saf in Kalba, Sharjah. The project combines soil data, sensor readings and AI to recommend crops suited to the conditions of a farmer’s land, helping farmers make more informed planting decisions.</p>
<p>Third place went to ‘ASL’, developed by Hafsah Alhashimi and Joud Almuhaidib of Deira International School. It proposes using fermentation and AI to produce protein locally for animal feed, with the aim of reducing the UAE’s reliance on imported feed and strengthening food security.</p>
<p>The challenge provided students with practical experience simulating the key stages of solution development, from problem definition and validation, through design, testing, and prototyping, to presentation and defence before specialists. It also enabled them to connect with mentors, experts, and partners from diverse sectors, and to explore career and entrepreneurial opportunities linked to sustainability, artificial intelligence, and the green economy.</p>
<p>Following Ru’ya Careers UAE 2026 the Ministry is establishing a dedicated support track for the winning teams, linking selected projects with mentors, technical experts, incubators, and relevant innovation partners. It will also explore opportunities to further develop and showcase these projects through the MOCCAE platforms and future initiatives. This pathway aims to sustain the momentum generated during the challenge, assist students in advancing prototypes, testing solutions, and enhancing applicability, while fostering a culture of environmental innovation and entrepreneurship among youth and expanding their contribution to the UAE’s sustainable development goals.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="https://abudhabiverse.co/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Abu Dhabi</a> Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ADCCI) has recognised 35 companies through its Sustainability Label programme, acknowledging their commitment to responsible business practices and stronger institutional performance. The recognition took place as part of the Chamber’s participation in the Liveability and Investment Exhibition (LIVEX 2026).</p>
<p>The recognition forms part of Abu Dhabi Chamber’s broader efforts to strengthen private-sector competitiveness and equip businesses to navigate a rapidly evolving global business environment, as sustainability considerations increasingly shape investment decisions, supply chain requirements and companies’ ability to access new opportunities and achieve long-term growth.</p>
<p>The Sustainability Label is one of Abu Dhabi Chamber’s initiatives designed to help private-sector companies translate sustainability commitments into measurable and actionable business practices. Through a practical framework combining performance assessment, capability building and continuous improvement, the programme supports businesses in strengthening institutional resilience, enhancing credibility and building greater readiness for growth and competition.</p>
<p><strong><b>H.E. Dr. Ali bin Harmal Al Dhaheri, First Vice Chairman of the Abu Dhabi Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said:</b></strong> “Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor in business competitiveness, investment decisions and supply-chain requirements across global markets. Companies that can measure, demonstrate and continuously improve their sustainability performance will be better positioned to seize opportunities, manage risks and create sustainable value over the long term.”</p>
<p>He added: “Through the Sustainability Label, we are helping companies turn their sustainability ambitions into practical action and build the capabilities needed to strengthen resilience and support future growth. The companies recognised today demonstrate tangible progress in embedding sustainability into the way they operate, govern and grow. This contributes to a more competitive and future-ready private sector while supporting Abu Dhabi’s sustainable economic development priorities.”</p>
<p>Abu Dhabi Chamber’s participation in LIVEX 2026 reflects the strategic significance of the exhibition as a global platform bringing together policymakers, investors, public- and private-sector leaders and experts at the intersection of liveability, investment and sustainable economic development. The exhibition also creates opportunities for public-private collaboration, quality investment and the advancement of opportunities that support economic diversification and reinforce Abu Dhabi’s global competitiveness.</p>
<p>The 35 companies recognised through the Sustainability Label were awarded across five categories. This brings the total number of companies awarded the Sustainability Label to 54 across Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the programme to date.</p>
<p>The <strong><b>Diamond Category</b></strong> recipients were AECOM Middle East Ltd; Ernst & Young Middle East (Abu Dhabi Branch); Arabian Gulf Steel Industries LLC; and Labotel.</p>

<p>The <strong><b>Silver Category</b></strong> recipients were AKAR Landscaping Services & Agriculture LLC SPC; Union Copper Rod LLC; Emirates Link Nitco LLC; and Agility Engineering and Contracting.</p>
<p>The <strong><b>Bronze Category</b></strong> recipients were Noor Al Sahara General Contracting; Telematics Networking & Communication Company LLC Abu Dhabi; Al Bahri & Al Mazroei Trading Company LLC Abu Dhabi; Al Bahri & Al Mazroei Technical System LLC Abu Dhabi; Exeed Precast; Exeed Aswar; Exeed Industries; Bloom Holding; Al Nakheel Hygienic Paper Manufacturing L.L.C. SPC; Circa Biotech; Low Calories Restaurants LLC; Emirates Motor Company; Al Dhabi Contracting LLC; Emirates Food Industries; National Dairy L.L.C.

<p>The breadth of companies recognised spanning construction and engineering, manufacturing and industrial production, food and beverage, agriculture, healthcare, professional and technical services, automotive, technology and hospitality, reflects the growing integration of sustainability into business strategy, governance and operational decision-making across Abu Dhabi’s private sector.</p>
<p>Through the Sustainability Label, Abu Dhabi Chamber continues to support businesses in assessing their performance, strengthening institutional capabilities and preparing for the evolving demands of the global economy, reinforcing the private sector’s role as a key partner in sustainable economic growth and advancing the competitiveness of Abu Dhabi’s business ecosystem.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p id="e3EYprNv4K0">The Emirates Environmental Group (EEG) marked a defining milestone in its journey as it celebrated its <strong>35<sup>th</sup> Anniversary</strong>, bringing together government representatives, Ambassadors, Consul Generals, business leaders, sustainability professionals, Corporate and academic members, media houses, partners and long-standing supporters at the <strong>Holiday Inn & Suites Dubai Science Park</strong>.</p>
<p id="eSVsVjwrccW">The occasion celebrated more than three decades of environmental leadership, community action and partnerships, while setting the direction for EEG’s next chapter of deeper collaboration, innovation and measurable environmental impact.</p>
<p id="eqnIGA_2nN5">Established in 1991, at a time when sustainability had yet to become a mainstream global priority, EEG has grown into one of the UAE’s most established environmental bodies, creating platforms that connect government, business, academia and the diverse communities around a common environmental purpose.</p>
<p id="e_-H4hY4ZSp">Over the decades, EEG has consistently worked to translate environmental awareness into tangible actions through recycling programmes, waste management initiatives, tree planting, community clean-up campaigns, environmental education, capacity building, corporate engagement and platforms for dialogue and knowledge exchange.</p>
<p id="edDIT2cCRcZ">Addressing the distinguished gathering, <strong>Dr. Habiba Al Mar’ashi, Co-Founder and Chairperson of the Emirates Environmental Group</strong>, reflected on the organisation’s journey and the collective effort that has sustained its mission for more than three decades.</p>
<p id="elQ5bD9wbEPb">“Thirty-five years ago, we began with a simple but powerful conviction: protecting our environment is not the responsibility of one institution, one sector or one generation. It is the responsibility of all of us.”</p>
<p id="eqvStghy1SRz">Dr. Habiba reflected on how dramatically the sustainability landscape has evolved since EEG was established. Concepts such as climate action, the circular economy, ESG, net zero and biodiversity conservation have moved from specialist discussions to the centre of government strategies, corporate boardrooms and public consciousness. Throughout this transformation, EEG has remained consistent and focused on connecting ambition with participation and participation with meaningful action.</p>
<p id="etBq20omhiE2">“Awareness must become participation. Participation must become action. And action, sustained over time, needs to translate to impact. This philosophy has guided EEG throughout its journey and will continue to define the chapter ahead.”</p>
<p id="ePE-gd4gQQHB">She also highlighted the privilege of EEG growing alongside the remarkable development of the United Arab Emirates, a nation that has increasingly placed environmental stewardship, climate action, innovation and responsible development at the heart of its ambitions. EEG has contributed to this journey by creating practical opportunities for businesses, institutions, communities and individuals to participate in advancing environmental responsibility.</p>
<p id="eaHV6nhtf01Z">The anniversary celebration was distinguished by the presence of <strong>H.H. Engr. Sheikh Salim bin Sultan bin Saqr Al Qasimi</strong>, Honorary Member of EEG and the organisation’s longest-standing supporter, whose patronage, encouragement and commitment to environmental protection have accompanied many of EEG’s programmes and initiatives throughout the years.</p>
<p id="e7j8m3m_ETJ_">Reflecting on EEG’s 35-year journey and the importance of sustained collaboration, H.H. Sheikh Salim said:</p>
<p id="ez5DSEbynw4s">“Thirty-five years of the Emirates Environmental Group represent far more than the longevity of an organisation. They represent 35 years of bringing people together, educating communities and transforming environmental responsibility into action. I am proud to have witnessed and supported this journey over many years. EEG has demonstrated that lasting environmental progress is achieved when government, business, academia and society work together with a shared sense of responsibility and purpose.”</p>
<p id="e_TTvG_1rjt-">H.H. Sheikh Salim also highlighted the importance of looking beyond the anniversary itself and towards the environmental responsibilities of the coming decades.</p>
<p id="eoHh3WJZzI5N">“As we celebrate what has been achieved, we must also look ahead. The environmental challenges facing our world require stronger partnerships, greater innovation and meaningful actions. I congratulate Dr. Habiba, the EEG team, its members, partners and volunteers on this important milestone, and I look forward to continuing our journey together towards an even more sustainable future for our beloved United Arab Emirates.”</p>
<p id="eBwhjH_HW-vV">The celebration also featured congratulatory remarks given by <strong>H.E. Alia Al Harmoodi, Assistant Undersecretary for the Sustainable Communities Sector at the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE)</strong>, the Ministry recognised EEG’s 35 years of contribution to environmental awareness, community engagement and sustainability in the UAE. On behalf of Her Excellency the Minister, H.E. Alia also presented a commemorative plaque to Dr Habiba Al Mar’ashi, marking the organisation’s 35<sup>th</sup> Anniversary and acknowledging its longstanding contribution to advancing environmental action in the country.</p>
<p id="eCwNQiVJDQdh">A particularly meaningful part of the celebration was the recognition of organisations that have stood alongside EEG throughout its journey and contributed to advancing its environmental mission.</p>
<p id="eAEN40WGmczh">Select individuals and long-standing organisations were honoured for the important role they have played in EEG’s 35-year journey, recognising their continued belief, encouragement, partnership and contribution to the organisation’s growth and environmental mission.</p>
<p id="eOCkPslbUvkZ">Among the organisations recognised were <strong>ABB, Abela & Co, Abu Dhabi Municipality, Al Dhafra TV, Al Murad Group, Apparel Group, AtkinsRéalis, DEWA, Dubai Municipality, Dubai TV, DUCAB, Fujairah Municipality, Fujairah TV, Gulf News, Khaleej Times, Lucky Recycling, Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE), McDonald’s UAE, Sharjah City for Humanitarian Services (SCHS) and Wasl</strong>. Their longstanding support has helped strengthen EEG’s campaigns, extend its reach across communities and amplify its environmental message over the years.</p>
<p id="esogbVr4M8WH">Their recognition reflected one of the principles that has defined EEG throughout its 35-year history: lasting environmental progress is built through partnerships that endure beyond individual campaigns, projects and events.</p>
<p id="eH6pAZu75H43">“There is something profoundly meaningful about relationships that endure. To our long-standing partners, thank you for believing in us before sustainability became fashionable, for growing with us and, most importantly, for continuing to stand beside us today,” Dr. Habiba said.</p>
<p id="eaClfNgneoF5">The celebration also acknowledged the essential contribution of EEG’s wider network of government partners, corporate members, educational institutions, volunteers, young people and members of the diplomatic and international community, whose collective involvement has enabled EEG to broaden its reach and impact over the years.</p>
<p id="ehNge-0DZLxn">While the occasion provided an opportunity to reflect on 35 years of achievements, EEG emphasised that the anniversary represents not an end point, but the beginning of a more ambitious chapter.</p>
<p id="eU8yS0RrmZMy">Against the backdrop of accelerating climate change, biodiversity loss, pressure on natural resources and rapidly evolving sustainability expectations, EEG reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening collaboration between government, business, academia and society.</p>
<p id="eANIvT3QsNJy">The organisation will continue to advance environmental education and community engagement and mobilisation, strengthen youth participation, promote circular economy practices and responsible resource management, support biodiversity conservation and deepen corporate engagement in sustainability.</p>
<p id="e7lQfrHeFjGV">Looking towards the future, Dr. Habiba emphasised that the responsibility accompanying 35 years of experience is equally as important as the achievements being celebrated.</p>
<p id="e_OtxvXysOXn">“Thirty-five years ago, we planted seeds. Today, we stand together beneath the branches of what those seeds have become. Our responsibility now is to ensure that what we leave behind is stronger, greener and more resilient for those who will come after us.”</p>
<p id="exQMzF4m-vPG">The celebration concluded with a renewed commitment from EEG and its community of members, partners and supporters to continue advancing environmental responsibility and collective action across the UAE and beyond.</p>
<p id="erJQkQ-zX7ZK">As EEG enters its next chapter, it remains guided under the guidance of the wise leadership of the country by the principle that the future of sustainability will not be shaped by promises alone, but by partnerships, participation and measurable action.</p>
