DUBAI, 15th December, 2023 (WAM) -- The 13-day Greening

Education Hub, themed ‘Legacy from the Land of Zayed’,

marked the end of its activities during COP28.

Hosted by the Ministry of Education, this first-of-its-kind Hub

in the history of COP showcased education's vital role in

addressing the global climate crisis and achieving sustainable

development goals on a global scale. It attracted a diverse

audience from different backgrounds and age groups,

including a significant number of international visitors.

Dr. Ahmad Belhoul Al Falasi, Minister of Education, said, “As we

embarked on the launch of the Legacy from the Land of Zayed

Hub, our goal was to make significant advancements in

promoting climate education to address the global climate

crisis. We aimed to establish a lasting legacy that could serve

as a foundation for positive changes throughout the

educational process, all the way to building green societies.

The Hub has successfully achieved its objectives. The UAE has

inspired educational leaders to implement tangible measures,

positioning education at the forefront of worldwide

conversations about climate and sustainability. This supports

the aim of enhancing the skills of educational cadres, raising

environmental and climate awareness among students, and

empowering them to become advocates for sustainability in

their communities and workplaces."
