Greening the Capital
As part of the ongoing 'Capital, a Healthy Governorate' initiative, the Capital Governorate, in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), hosted a tree-planting event at Bu Ashira Park to celebrate World Environment Day.
The event was graced by the presence of H.E. Shaikh Rashid bin Abdulrahman Al Khalifa, Governor of the Capital, and H.E. Yusuf Lori, who both reiterated Bahrain's commitment to sustainability through impactful green actions. These include coastal clean-up drives, expanded urban greenery, and environmental awareness campaigns—all in line with the Kingdom's national green strategy.
The celebration drew support from various community organizations including the Maan programme, Annai Tamil Mandram Executives, Global Federation of Societies for Social Service (GFSS), Indian Ladies Association, and a dedicated team of volunteers, reflecting the multicultural harmony at the heart of Bahrain's environmental journey.
