Bahrain hosts forum on Green Policy

Manama, Mar. 22 (BNA): Bahrain will be hosting a major discussion forum on the topic “The Keys to Sustainable Communities: Global Partnerships for Green Policy, Technology and Finance“. Chief Executive of the Supreme Council for the Environment Dr Mohammed Mubarak bin Daina announced the plan during a press conference at the Supreme Council for Environment headquarters in Seef. “This important forum will explore how private industry in partnership with the government in Bahrain can contribute to a green economy," American Chamber of Commerce business development consultant Mary McGinnis said. "We are living in an exceptional era, where profound environmental transformations are re-shaping the ways we live, do business and interact. It offers a new and incredibly broad spectrum of innovative solutions and opportunities to help solve the challenges we are facing." United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO) Director Dr Hashim Hussain said the forum will provide an excellent platform for key business leaders, entrepreneurs, investors and government leaders to discuss how to work with local governments, agencies like UNIDO and the private sector to address major infrastructure projects. The one-day event will be held on March 29.
