The Head of the Palestinian Environment Quality Authority, Zughul Sama’an, discussed with the Secretary-General of the Middle East Green Initiative, Ibrahim bin Muhammad Al-Turki, ways to enhance cooperation for environmental protection and to address climate challenges in Palestine. The meeting explored the prospects for Palestine to benefit from the Initiative's programs and support environmental projects, including land reclamation, combating desertification, restoring vegetation cover and afforestation, as well as technical support and capacity building.
