Al Dhaid Club organises a session on the environmental heritage

The panel discussion was organised with the aim of consolidating many environmental values and goals in society.

The session was moderated by Obaid bin Hamid Al Tunaiji who reviewed a number of projects that support development in the Emirate of Sharjah in general and the central Region in particular.

His Excellency Salem Mohammed bin Howaiden, Chairman of Al Dhaid Cultural and Sports Club, stressed that organising this session comes within the framework of the club’s interest in interacting with national events and at the same time strengthening the relationship with different groups of society, especially the elderly who have heritage and knowledge about the components of the Central Region’s environment. 

Meanwhile, Khalifa Mubarak bin Dalmouk, Chairman of the Cultural Committee, pointed out that this event is an opportunity to introduce the environment of the Central Region, as well as the national efforts to preserve the wild environment, especially since the visions and ideas of His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah, may God protect him, to preserve wildlife have been translated into projects that are a pioneering model at the national and international levels.
The panel discussion participants extended their sincere thanks to Al Dhaid Club, for giving them the opportunity to speak about the environmental heritage.

Meanwhile, Saeed Saif Al Tunaiji stressed the efforts made by the different institutions to preserve the environment, calling for benefiting from the experiences of the people of the region in documenting the environmental heritage.

Dr. Salem Zayed Al Tunaiji praised government efforts in the field of the environment, especially at the academic level, emphasising the importance of raising environmental awareness among current generations, not only through studies, but also through benefiting from the experiences of older people, who have experienced different environments.

Muhair Al-Khayal Al Tunaiji, Managing Director of Al Dhaid Club, referred to the national efforts to preserve the environment, pointing out that there is a need to intensify awareness among the public to preserve the vegetation cover, especially since the Central Region has become a destination for many tourists and visitors.

Both Rashid bin Ali bin Howaiden and Matar bin Gharir recalled those beautiful days when vegetation was more abundant, which turned the Central Region a destination for “Halal” owners, when the environment was able to adapt to small numbers of livestock. They touched on the most prominent trees and plants that abound in the central region, especially “Samar” and “Ghaf” trees, as well as seasonal and perennial pastoral plants.
