Event promoting Zayed Sustainability Prize 2024 organized by UAE Embassy in Buenos Aires

The UAE Embassy in Buenos Aires recently partnered with the Zayed Sustainability Prize to host an event aimed at introducing the prestigious award and encouraging organizations in Argentina to participate in the 2024 edition.

The event saw the participation of notable figures such as Saeed Abdullah Al Qamzi, UAE Ambassador to Argentina, Ramzi Teymurov, Ambassador of Azerbaijan to Argentina, and Julio Glinternick Bitelli, Ambassador of Brazil to Argentina. Along with various officials and stakeholders in the education and sustainability sectors in Argentina.

During the event, Al Qamzi highlighted the UAE’s commitment to sustainability and announced the extension of the “Year of Sustainability” initiative to 2024.
