The national afforestation campaign “Forever Green” continues its mission to expand green spaces across the Kingdom of Bahrain.
As part of its latest initiative, a project was launched today on Avenue 65 leading to Diyar Al Muharraq, with the sponsorship of Bahrain Kuwait Insurance Company (GIG Bahrain), which supported the planting of 84 Council trees (Ficus Altissima).
The launch was attended by Shaikha Maram bint Isa Al Khalifa, Secretary General of the National Initiative for Agricultural Development (NIAD), alongside Dr. Abdulla Sultan, CEO of Bahrain Kuwait Insurance Company (GIG Bahrain), and Abdulaziz Al Naar, Chairman of the Muharraq Municipal Council.
Shaikha Maram bint Isa expressed her appreciation to GIG Bahrain for its contribution.
“Such community initiatives strengthen the partnership between the public and private sectors and pave the way towards environmental sustainability and enhance the quality of life in the Kingdom of Bahrain,” Shaikha Maram bint Isa said.
Dr. Abdulla Sultan underscored the company’s commitment to sustainability, noting: “We are proud to support the national afforestation campaign, as it represents an important step towards a greener future. We look forward to continuing our contribution to sustainable environmental development projects.”
GIG Bahrain’s involvement in the “Forever Green” campaign is aligned with its “Cashback” Motor Insurance Product launched last year.
The innovative product offers direct cashback to policyholders based on kilometres driven, encouraging reduced mileage and environmentally conscious driving. A portion of the product’s proceeds is allocated to planting trees in the Kingdom, reflecting the company’s strategy of integrating environmental sustainability into its core operations.
