He also underscored the need to preserve the state’s resources through optimal and efficient utilization. Al-Raeesi also stressed on the important roles that both the public and private sectors play in the move to foster more environmental awareness, which also includes efforts to establish a culture of sustainable development and to implement the goals set forth in the national agenda.
Moreover, DGW continues to exert its efforts to promote innovation, creativity and excellence across all areas of government work by forging strategic partnerships and enhancing social and volunteer activities, including awareness campaigns, to better serve the interests of community members.
