SAHIM - Abu Dhabi

"SAHIM" is a community driven initiative empowering individual to take action towards creating a sustainable environment. It is an opportunity for all Abu Dhabi residents to contribute to citizen science by supporting EAD to conduct research on the amount of single plastic and other types of waste entering the marine environment throughout the year. Whenever you find single use plastics and waste on the beach, the "SAHIM" application helps you to categories, record and upload your findings. This data is reported directly to EAD to provide the researchers and policy makers with insights around the current situation, help them in making better decisions, and formulate new regulations and provide recommendations to leaders in Abu Dhabi.
