 The Mohammed bin Rashid Global Centre for Endowment Consultancy, MBRGCEC, and the Emirates Wildlife Society in association with WWF (EWS-WWF) has confirmed Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) as a contributor to their joint Environment Endowment Fund (EEF).

This initiative is part of DEWA’s effort to protect the environment and the local and international climate, and promote the strategic partnership between DEWA and EWS-WWF, including the development of Climate Change Research and Learning Programme (CCRLP) in Wadi Wurayahin Fujairah.

The EEF will strengthen public awareness about the importance of environmental programmes, and encouraging companies to undertake their corporate social responsibility to support initiatives, studies, and research in the environment, to promote sustainable development and preserve natural resources in the UAE. DEWA was accredited after meeting the requirements and commitments of the Impact Giving Criteria, and will donate AED1 million.

The two-phase programme will provide participants with an opportunity to learn more about the impact of climate change in the UAE. DEWA organised the first visit to Wadi Wurayah, in Fujairah, in April 2017, for DEWA’s new graduates and its Youth Council. It is scheduled to undertake another field visit in November.

"DEWA supports the efforts of the UAE in various institutions to reduce the impact of climate change. In line with the Year of Giving, declared by President His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, and following the Global Initiative for Endowment, which was launched by Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, and includes the financing of programmes to preserve the environment, we strive to maintain a clean and safe environment and reduce carbon emissions that have become a worldwide threat," said Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD and CEO of DEWA.

"In the light of the partnership between DEWA and EWS-WWF, to develop the research and training programme on climate change in Wadi Wurayah, and to reduce carbon footprint, we recorded DEWA as a supporter of the environment, in recognition of its ongoing efforts to preserve it. We hope that other companies will do the same as DEWA, to protect our rich cultural heritage and contribute to the development of the nation," said Laila Mostafa Abdullatif, Director-General at EWS-WWF.
