In partnership with Paris Saclay University, Academia for a Better World will stage at the Better World Fund (BWF) program that will be held during the Red Sea International Film Festival in Jeddah.
Created in December 2021 by Better World Fund and Paris-Saclay University, the Academia for a Better World is a borderless philanthropic platform whose objective is to facilitate the deployment of the best global solutions in response to the societal and climate challenges of the 21st century.
The Better World Fund (BWF), a Paris-based non-profit organization raising awareness on critical global issues, will host for the first time in Saudi Arabia a big event on “Climate, and Sustainable Living”. The conference that will be held on December 6th and 7th at Jeddah Hilton and Hayy Jameel respectively invites people to a series of high-level events to discuss the importance of protecting biodiversity and our natural resources, notably within the context of global warming.
On December 6th at Hayy Jameel, the Academia for a Better World will stage the best global breakthroughs in renewable bio-energies and their contributions to more sustainable energy, transportation, food, and web 3.0 value chains. The main focus will be on renewable biomass stemming from natural organic waste and algae-generated bio-hydrogen.
To support the best worldwide bio-energies solutions Academia for a Better World launches a unique donation campaign. LINK: https://form.jotform.com/222864068001349
