Additionally, the university collaborates with local authorities and organizations involved in waste management and recycling efforts. By participating in community-wide initiatives, Majmaah University contributes to the broader goal of achieving responsible consumption and production practices in the Kingdom.

 

In conclusion, both Saudi Arabia and Majmaah University recognize the importance of responsible consumption and production in building a sustainable future.
