Ajman University’s Office of Sustainability Takes Part in Dubai Holding Women + Fin-Erth Climate Dinner

Ajman University, represented by the Office of Sustainability, participated in the inaugural Dubai Holding Women + Fin-Erth Climate Dinner held on 17 September 2024 at Al Nafoorah, Jumeirah Al Qasr Hotel, Dubai. Organized by Dubai Holding, in partnership with Fin-Erth, the exclusive event gathered around 80 influential women leaders across the UAE’s climate ecosystem to explore collaborative pathways for advancing climate solutions and building momentum towards a sustainable future

Building on the legacy of COP28 and Dubai Holding’s pivotal role as a Principal Pathway Sponsor, the dinner marked the first step in establishing a dedicated community of female leaders committed to driving environmental progress and supporting the UAE’s Net Zero 2050 agenda. The evening featured a welcome reception followed by a guided seated dinner designed to encourage open dialogue, knowledge exchange, and collective brainstorming around unlocking innovative approaches to climate action.

Throughout the discussions, participants reflected on the power of women’s leadership in accelerating sustainability initiatives across diverse sectors, from green finance and circular economy solutions to low-carbon innovation. The gathering underscored the significance of fostering inclusive platforms where women can collaborate, mentor, and amplify each other’s impact in shaping a resilient climate future.

 The event also served as a launchpad for ongoing engagement, with attendees invited to join a dedicated WhatsApp community, a dynamic network aimed at sustaining collaboration, learning, and mutual support among women driving climate action in the region. Fin-Erth will circulate the key discussion takeaways and future action points emerging from the dinner’s thematic tables.

Ajman University’s participation reflects its ongoing dedication to empowering women in sustainability leadership and its alignment with the UAE’s national vision for climate innovation, gender inclusion, and global environmental stewardship.
