Oman Sail wins Sustainable Business Practices Award
MUSCAT: Oman Sail has been recognised for its ongoing commitment to sustainability, ocean protection and national development with the Sustainable Business Practices Award at the prestigious Oman Leadership Awards 2025. The award celebrates Oman Sail's long-standing efforts to embed sustainability across its operations and events, using sport as a platform to raise
environmental awareness, empower young people, and contribute to the goals of Oman Vision 2040.
Through a combination of sailing programmes, community engagement, coastal clean-ups, and strategic collaborations, Oman Sail is helping to build a more sustainable future for Oman's coastline and communities.
Dr Khamis al Jabri, CEO of Oman Sail, commented, 'This award reflects the collective dedication of our team, partners, and communities. Sustainability is more than a principle for us; it's a daily responsibility. We're proud to play a role in protecting our marine environment, developing youth potential, and contributing to the blue economy by having a positive impact on the nation's
natural assets.'
From reducing single-use plastic use at events to launching environmental initiatives and supporting eco-tourism with SeaOman brand, Oman Sail's sustainability strategy is aligned with both the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and Oman's national ambitions to ensure progress is measurable and can make a tangible difference to the community and the
environment.
The Oman Leadership Awards, organised by World CSR Day, recognise organisations and individuals making exceptional contributions in leadership, corporate responsibility, and sustainability across the region.
