Al-Sari added that at the conclusion of the camp, KFH, as part of its “Keep it Green” environmental campaign, awarded the best project prize to recognize the outstanding efforts made by the students and to encourage creative ideas and innovative solutions presented during the program. The award aims to motivate participants to continue developing their environmental projects and initiatives, enhancing their culture of innovation and sustainability, thereby preparing them to play an active role in addressing future environmental challenges.
He emphasized KFH’s commitment to supporting such high-quality initiatives, driven by the belief in the importance of empowering and involving youth in efforts toward sustainable development by providing them with the knowledge, skills, and practical experience needed to understand environmental challenges and develop effective solutions. These programs also help identify young talents, refine their capabilities, and guide them toward fields that have a positive impact on society and the environment.
