The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa), has organised a ceremony for 75 graduates of the second batch of the Carbon Ambassadors' Programme.

The programme, which conforms to the criteria set by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), is supported by the Dubai Carbon Centre of Excellence, or Dubai Carbon. The programme's practical component involves implementation of turn-key projects in partnership with a number of government and private entities.

The delegates were divided into teams, each supervised by a partner. A panel of judges evaluated the projects and selected the best three teams. At the graduation ceremony, Dewa honoured the first three winning projects, sponsored by the UAE Water Aid Foundation (Suqia), the Ministry of Climate Change and the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).
