Kuwait Investment Authority and Agriculture Authority agree to green and develop a strategic site
Kuwait Investment Company signed a cooperation agreement with the Public Authority for Agriculture Affairs and Fish Resources to implement an initiative to green and develop the site located between the Abdullah Al-Salem and Mansouriyah areas at the end of the highway, in collaboration with the Green Urban Development Initiatives Committee, as part of the company’s commitment to its social responsibility and its keenness to contribute to supporting national efforts aimed at enhancing environmental sustainability and increasing green spaces in Kuwait.
The initiative comes as an extension of the company’s strategy to build effective institutional partnerships with government entities and state institutions, thereby contributing to the implementation of developmental projects with sustainable impact that enhance quality of life and improve the urban landscape, driven by its belief in the importance of integrating efforts between the public and private sectors to achieve sustainable development.
On this occasion, Talal Al-Rashdan, Deputy Head of Public Relations and Media at Kuwait Investment Company, affirmed that the agreement embodies the company’s vision of leveraging its social responsibility to create a positive and sustainable impact on society. He noted that investing in the environment is an investment in the future of coming generations, reflecting the company’s commitment to supporting national initiatives that contribute to achieving sustainable development and preserving natural resources.
He added that the selection of this vital site for development and greening stemmed from the desire to contribute to improving the urban landscape and creating a more sustainable and beautiful environment, especially since it serves as one of the main entrances to Kuwait City and holds a strategic location witnessing heavy traffic. This grants the initiative a broad visual and environmental impact, reflecting the country’s civilized image. He emphasized that this initiative aligns with national trends aimed at increasing green spaces and upgrading public facilities, noting that the company views sustainability as an integral part of its institutional strategy, not merely as seasonal initiatives.
He praised the significant role played by the Agriculture Authority, under the leadership of its Acting Director General Salem Al-Hai, appreciating the Authority’s cooperation in the success of this initiative. He also commended the efforts of the Green Urban Development Initiatives Committee and its role in supporting environmental projects that contribute to developing the urban landscape and consolidating concepts of environmental sustainability.
He affirmed that Kuwait Investment Company will continue to launch and implement distinctive initiatives in partnership with various official entities and civil society organizations, driven by its mission to enhance sustainable development and create added value for society, thereby consolidating its position as an effective national partner in supporting community and environmental initiatives that align with Kuwait’s vision for a more sustainable future.
The agreement reflects Kuwait Investment Company’s commitment to continuing its role in serving society through social responsibility initiatives that achieve long-term impact, enhance cooperation with government entities, and contribute to building a more sustainable and higher-quality urban environment for current and future generations.
