This initiative aims to improve the environment and develop a sustainable system for waste management, reflecting the foundation's commitment to supporting, developing and enhancing the capacity of the centers working under its umbrella, promoting and developing their roles in society, and developing strategies, policies, and programs that contribute to their improvement while preserving the rights of the beneficiary groups. This enables the fulfillment of the goals for which they were established, and recognizes Elite company's role in waste collection and recycling and their mutual interest in joint cooperation to promote environmental awareness through recycling and finding innovative solutions for sustainable development and environmentally friendly practices for future generations, in line with Qatar National Vision 2030.

 

The memorandum was signed on behalf of Qatar Foundation for Social Work by Mr. Rashid bin Mohammed Al Nuaimi, Acting Executive Director, and on behalf of Elite West Paper Recycling Company by Mr. Abdullah Ibrahim Al Suwaidi, Chairman of the Board of Directors. Both parties look forward to productive and sustainable cooperation. The memorandum of understanding includes conducting joint projects and investment activities to increase recycling rates and support Qatar's national development program. This partnership will also contribute to raising awareness among individuals and institutions about the importance of waste collection, recycling, and environmental conservation.

 

Mr. Rashid Al Nuaimi stated after the signing: "This memorandum represents an important step in strengthening cooperation between Qatar Foundation for Social Work and Elite West Paper Recycling Company in the field of recycling and waste management, emphasizing the foundation's ongoing commitment to improving the environment and conserving natural resources."

 

Meanwhile, Mr. Abdullah Al Suwaidi highlighted the importance of this collaboration, saying: "This agreement comes in line with our keenness to integrate with the efforts of Qatar Foundation for Social Work in developing a sustainable environmental awareness system and enhancing the values of community work in the State of Qatar."

The agreement aimed to provide a cooperative framework and facilitate cooperation between the two parties to recycle consumed materials from the foundation and its affiliated centers and support positive behavior in preserving the environment and achieving Qatar Vision 2030 in participating in environmental conservation. The areas of cooperation included collecting recycling materials to preserve the environment by the foundation and its affiliated centers, so that the Elite company provides recycling containers. The foundation and its affiliated centers will place waste and materials in the recycling containers provided by the Elite company for collecting recycling materials.
