National program
Middle East | Saudi Arabia
The National Program aims to maximize the sustainable use of renewable water resources, including treated wastewater, renewable groundwater, surface water, and desalinated water in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. MEWA desires to benefit from the Treated Sewage Effluents (TSE) and other available water resources (dams’ water, desalinated water and renewable groundwater) which can enhance agricultural, greening and other developmental activities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The project focuses on optimizing water production for irrigation and developing new agricultural areas, but without foregoing other possible uses of renewable water. Renewable water sources offer a green and long-term solution to address water challenges and meet the growing global demand for water while ensuring the sustainability of the water resources. The project aims to identify and promote sustainable practices that maximize the use of renewable water resources while minimizing environmental impacts and ensuring the long-term viability of these resources.
