A total of 18 youth took part in the Bee'ah programme to contribute actively in achieving several of the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the UAE.
The comprehensive training programme - based on the concept of circular economy - was developed by the Institute of Environmental Management and Sustainability, Middle East (IEMS), in collaboration with the Federal Competitiveness and Statistics Authority (FCSA).
During the course of the programme, trainers shared global best practices on how to analyse potential collaboration opportunities with stakeholders at all levels to drive SDG implementation. The programme was tailored to harness maximum benefit from Bee'ah's corporate strategy and position as a pioneer in ensuring a sustainable quality of life for UAE residents.
The two-day programme identified current obstacles in reaching these goals, as well as key focus areas for improvement. Trainers in the programme advised Bee'ah ambassadors on how to link the organisation's strategy with the SDGs and assess potential ways to operationalize sustainable development targets and indicators through appropriate channels.
Khaled Al Huraimel, Bee'ah's Group CEO, said; "This special training programme, conducted by IEMS, has given our employees a new perspective on how to achieve our objectives. We are pleased to be playing a role in implementing and affecting change in the country while building up its knowledge economy. Through our efforts, we hope to support the improvement in quality of life in the UAE and establish a blueprint for its sustainable future."
Ghaya Al Midfa, head of SDG's Section, strategy and future department from the FCSA, said: "We aligned the SDGs with UAE's national development priorities where the National Committee on SDGs serves as a coordination body to implement the SDGs and to undertake regular follow up and review of progress on implementation.
This is being done through working with private and public sector entities."
