Women pioneer green projects in Gaza
Five women were selected to showcase their eco-friendly project at an exhibition in Gaza organized by the Women's Affairs Center to raise awareness on climate change and the need to protect the environment.
A group of Palestinian women has recently showcased several products they manufactured through waste recycling that are safe for human health and the environment.
Plant nurseries, natural hair and skin care products, natural organic fertilizers, art pieces created from wood residues, and fruits and vegetables that were dried using renewable energy were among the many products presented by the women at the “Environmentally Friendly Women’s Initiatives” exhibition held in Gaza City Sept. 7.
Five women running green, environmentally friendly projects in the Gaza Strip showcased their projects in the exhibition organized by the Women's Affairs Center in Gaza, in cooperation with several Palestinian institutions, at the Shalehat tourist resort in Gaza City.
The exhibition aimed to bring about positive change to the environment and climate change, through projects that are the source of livelihood of many women in the Gaza Strip, which is reeling under difficult economic conditions.
