SUSTAINABLE COASTAL DEVELOPMENT MENA FORUM 2026

Description

The Sustainable Coastal Development Forum is a premier regional summit dedicated to the future of resilient and sustainable coastal infrastructure in the Middle East. Held in Saudi Arabia, the event brings together government officials, urban planners, environmental engineers, and developers to discuss the integration of nature-based solutions, climate-resilient engineering, and sustainable tourism. As the region undergoes rapid transformation through massive giga-projects, the forum serves as a critical platform for addressing the challenges of rising sea levels, biodiversity conservation, and the implementation of blue economy principles to ensure long-term ecological and economic stability.
