The initiative was executed under the umbrella of the “Engage for Change” program, which facilitates the participation of Orange Group employees across the Middle East and Africa region in sustainable community service. Under the campaign, waste bags were distributed to drivers and citizens at intersections and traffic lights, while applying the highest safety standards and preventive measures to ensure that volunteer activities are carried out in a safe environment. The Ministry of Environment stressed the importance of collaboration between the public and private sectors in supporting national efforts to protect the environment and foster community awareness of environmental issues, noting that adopting positive behaviors in daily life contributes to maintaining immaculate public facilities and reducing pollution.
