Ajman University Participate in the "Clean UAE 2025" Campaign to Promote Environmental Sustainability

As part of its commitment to promoting environmental sustainability and fostering community engagement, Ajman University community members and students, along with their families, participated in the 24th edition of the "Clean UAE" campaign. Organized by the Emirates Environmental Group under the patronage of the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment, this initiative reflects the University's dedication to raising environmental awareness among students and the broader community while encouraging the adoption of eco-friendly practices that contribute to preserving natural resources and achieving sustainable development.

Ajman University's participation in this campaign underscores its sustainable approach and commitment to educating students on the importance of environmental conservation and active involvement in meaningful community initiatives. Through this event, students and their families had the opportunity to interact with experts and volunteers from various organizations, gain insights into waste-related challenges, and understand their impact on ecosystems. Additionally, the campaign instilled values of teamwork, volunteerism, and social responsibility among participants, reinforcing their role in building a more sustainable future.

The "Clean UAE" campaign is one of the UAE's leading environmental initiatives. Held from December 6 to 16, 2025, the campaign aimed to enhance environmental awareness and reinforce the concept of social responsibility. It brought together diverse community members to help clean natural areas and responsibly dispose of waste, contributing to environmental preservation and sustainability. The Ajman stop of the campaign took place on December 11, in collaboration with the Ajman Municipality and Planning Department and Ajman Police, and covered a distance of 10 kilometres.

This year's campaign saw participation from various sectors, with 84,000 volunteers from educational institutions, government entities, businesses, and families. Their collective efforts led to the collection of 45,000 kilograms of waste and the cleaning of 98 kilometres of land nationwide. At the Ajman site alone, 1,025 volunteers collected 2,763 kilograms of general waste, along with 35 kilograms of paper, 60 kilograms of plastic, 15 kilograms of aluminium cans, 50 kilograms of glass, and 20 kilograms of scrap metal, all carefully separated for delivery to local recycling facilities, showcasing their dedication to sustainable environmental practices.

Participants from the University described the campaign as an inspiring experience that increased their awareness of the environmental impact of waste and motivated them to adopt sustainable habits, such as reducing plastic consumption, recycling, and participating in other environmental initiatives. They also expressed gratitude for the organizational efforts that ensured the campaign's success, commending the Ajman University Office of Sustainability for offering valuable opportunities for active involvement in environmental activities and boosting their ecological awareness.
