Aramex has launched a new podcast series in Arabic, with the theme of sustainability.
Called ‘The Road to Sustainability’, the podcast is hosted by Dr. Abubaker Musa Eltom, a dedicated Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) advocate and speaker.
The podcast series is designed to enrich Arabic content on sustainability-related topics, with a primary focus on the UAE.
“The main aim of the initiative is to bridge knowledge gaps, share valuable insights and engage listeners in vital conversations through thought-provoking discussions, insightful comments, and interactive dialogues about sustainability within the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) framework, while also supporting the broader objectives of the UAE’s efforts to foster a sustainable and prosperous future for all,” Aramex said.
The logistics firm will feature discussions with prominent figures in sustainability, addressing some of the most crucial topics in the field.
The first episode features Dr. Ashraf Gamal El Din, Chief Executive Officer of Hawkamah, the Institute for Corporate Governance, the DIFC.
It focuses on the critical role of governance, a cornerstone in the ESG framework, while exploring key themes, including the balance between compliance and reporting, the significance of transparency, and the role of regulators in shaping sustainable business practices.
Other episodes feature Sheikh Abdul Aziz bin Ali Al Nuaimi, a member of the Ajman Royal family in the UAE, and popularly known as The Green Sheikh.
