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.

His Excellency 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.”
