Dubai Municipality has been awarded the Golden category for Environment Management Industry at the Global Environment Award.

The award, organised by the Global Energy & Environment Foundation (GEEF), honours individuals, teams, projects, and organisations for their contributions to environmental sustainability and the preservation of natural resources.

At the awards ceremony, the Municipality received recognition for its ‘Sustainability Projects System’ initiative, which showcased its accomplishments and sustainable projects.

It was shared that the initiative encourages environmental sustainability practices, enhances natural resource management, introduces innovative strategies to reduce the effects of climate change and aims to raise awareness of emerging environmental challenges.

Dubai Municipality shared it has established a “comprehensive system of sustainability projects.”

This includes the Al Warsan Waste-to-Energy Plant project, the Biogas-to-energy project, and the trading of carbon credits on the Dubai Financial Market.

It has also attained ISO 14001 certification for its Integrated Environmental Management System and ISO 5000 certification for its integrated energy management system.

“The Municipality also played a key role in 10 global competitiveness indicators for smart cities,” it said.

Additionally, the Municipality has launched the ‘More Sustainable Dubai’ initiative alongside its role as a key partner in the United Nations Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP 28).
