Dewa raises awareness about sustainability, climate protection

Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa) organised a series of virtual awareness lectures in Arabic and English, in collaboration with Dubai Municipality to educate students about the importance of protecting the precious natural resources. The lectures also introduced the students to the 8 natural reserves in Dubai, and their major role to achieve environmental balance. This celebrates the 25th National Environment Day, held this year with the theme ‘Climate Action Now.’ Dewa also launched an internal electronic competition and an awareness campaign on its official pages on social media as well as internal and external channels to encourage the public and Dewa’s employees to follow a responsible and sustainable lifestyle. This creates a positive impact and supports the nation’s efforts to achieve sustainable environmental development. “We follow the steps of the Founding Fathers, and we support the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to promote sustainability and innovation, shift towards a green sustainable economy, and achieve maximum production efficiency. We are committed to increasing the share of clean and renewable energy. This achieves the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 and the Dubai Net Zero
