Women are a major asset in global climate action, protection of Oceans and promotion of Clean Energy, said Princess Lalla Hasnaa, chairwoman of the Mohammed VI Foundation for Environment Protection, insisting that women’s voices must be heard for the sake of inclusive, sustainable progress. Indeed, experience shows that progress – particularly inclusive, sustainable progress – cannot be achieved unless women are involved in it and benefit from it”. “As you may realize, my work at the Foundation involves, above all, an education and awareness-raising mission to promote sustainable development. The action of the Foundation is aimed at raising young people’s awareness about sustainable development – from preschool level to higher education. Later Thursday, Princess Lalla Hasnaa attended a panel on “Inclusive Climate Actions” focusing on the importance of fighting climate change and pooling efforts to reach tangible results for the well-being of the planet and humanity.
