RIYADH: As a nation moving toward a greener future, Saudi Arabia is building bridges between the public and officials, raising awareness, and designing campaigns that promote sustainable development.
These efforts, in line with Vision 2030, seek to educate people about ecosystems and how they play a role in protecting and improving them. To support these goals, communication is critical. Journalism is one of the most effective tools.
Environmental journalism, used widely in both developed and developing nations, plays an essential role in shaping public awareness.
From reporting on ecological issues to empowering communities to take part in Vision 2030, Saudi Arabia needs more environmental journalists. Yet the field remains relatively unknown in the country.
Recognizing this gap, the National Center for Environmental Compliance has begun taking steps to advocate for and support eco-journalism.
