The Middle East Green Initiative signifies Saudi Arabia’s commitment to international sustainability efforts. It will enable the region to help protect the planet by clearly defining an ambitious road map that significantly contributes to achieving global targets.
It amplifies Saudi Arabia’s coordination and knowledge transfer with regional and international partners to achieve a significant global reduction in carbon emissions and deliver the largest reforestation program in the world.
The first Middle East Green Initiative Summit was hosted by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in Riyadh on October 25, 2021. It facilitated a first-of-its-kind regional dialogue on climate. The leaders in attendance expressed their appreciation for the Kingdom’s initiatives and efforts in the field of the environment and climate change. They agreed to work together to tackle climate change and to hold the summit periodically to develop implementation plans to achieve the objectives of the Middle East Green Initiative.
Saudi Arabia has also established the Green Initiative Foundation, a non-profit organization to support and ensure the implementation of Saudi Green Initiative and the Middle East Green Initiative objectives.
