Environment Agencies in UAE always apply innovative methods to disseminate environment awareness messages to the widest possible audience. Recently ?Tadweer-Center of Waste Management , Abu Dhabi? utilised various ideas and methods that appealedl to school students, ensuring that environmental message is spread among maximum number of students quickly and efficiently. It has successfully concluded a series of innovative educational initiatives for students in Abu Dhabi as part of its school environment awareness campaign that ran throughout January. 


During the campaign, Tadweer disseminated its awareness messages during the morning school assemblies, engaging teachers in educating pupils about the importance of maintaining a clean environment, reducing waste, and promoting waste reuse and recycling.

Additionally, Tadweer partnered with Popular Popcorn to print the centre?s environmental awareness messages on nearly 50,000 boxes that were sold at more than 100 schools in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and the Western Region. The awareness messages encouraged students to throw their empty popcorn boxes in designated waste bins. 

The month-long campaign was specifically designed to promote waste segregation at source, while reducing the amount of food waste that goes into landfills instead of recycling – one of the key concerns outlined by Tadweer as part of its ongoing efforts to support Abu Dhabi Economic Vision 2030.
