Major Khartoum Environmental Cleanup Campaign to Begin Next Monday
Khartoum – Sudanhorizon
The Khartoum State Environmental Health Committee, established pursuant to a directive by Prime Minister Kamil Idris, held a meeting today chaired by Minister of Minerals and Committee Chairman Nour Al-Daem Taha, in the presence of Khartoum State Governor Ahmed Osman Hamza, several ministers, members of the state government, and representatives of relevant authorities and partner organisations.
The meeting heard a detailed report on the plan and urgent executive programme for improving environmental conditions across the state. It also reviewed final preparations for the emergency state-wide cleaning campaign, which is scheduled to be officially launched next Monday at the Khartoum State Government headquarters.
The campaign will cover all seven localities of Khartoum State, with broad field and operational participation from the Roads and Bridges Authority, Khartoum State Water Corporation, the Cleaning Authority, and the Supreme Council for Environment and Urban Development, in coordination with various relevant institutions.
Participants stressed the importance of integrating official and public efforts, calling on all sectors of Sudanese society – including civil society organisations, families, students and businesspeople – to take an active part in the campaign. The aim is to make cleanliness a sustainable community practice, restore Khartoum’s civilised appearance and safe environment, and extend the experience to other states.
The meeting also emphasised the need to intensify media campaigns to raise public awareness of the importance of environmental health and safety, and to support the environmental cleanup campaign across Khartoum State.
