At the heart of this transformative initiative, President Shavkat Mirziyoyev and Ali Al Dhaheri, General Director of Tadweer, engaged in a bilateral meeting following the Memorandum signing ceremony. President Mirziyoyev remarked on the strengthened cooperation since 2019, affirming the robust and positive relations between the UAE and Uzbekistan. He noted,
Minister Aziz Abdukhakimov underscored Uzbekistan's dedication to improving waste management, stating,
Ali Al Dhaheri, the CEO of Tadweer, expressed the organization's commitment to supporting global environmental sustainability, stating,
The project, commencing with a feasibility study in regions such as Navoi, Bukhara, and the Fergana Valley, will delve into waste management practices in each region. Minister Abdukhakimov expressed optimism, stating,
The collaborative effort includes the development of a comprehensive management system for solid waste collection and removal, along with sorting, processing, and disposal. The project envisions the installation of waste sorting lines at enterprises generating solid waste and the establishment of enterprises for the processing of secondary raw materials such as plastic, paper, glass, and aluminum.
Research indicates that proactive waste and resource management can significantly reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by 15% to 20%, leading to substantial environmental and economic benefits.
