Kuwait's top envoy for international organizations urged greater global cooperation to combat the escalating threats posed by rising sea levels. During a United Nations assembly in New York, Ambassador Sadiq Marafi emphasized the importance of providing vulnerable nations with adequate financial assistance and technological advancements to adapt to these climate challenges.
Marafi stressed that sea-level rise poses a direct threat to community security, economic stability, and long-term development. As a coastal nation himself, he acknowledged the significance of strategic planning, sustainable investments, and scientific innovation to mitigate the risks associated with climate change.
Kuwait, Marafi explained, is committed to supporting developing countries through the Kuwait Fund for Arab Economic Development (KFAED). This fund finances initiatives in areas such as water resources management, renewable energy, sustainable agriculture, and resilient infrastructure. These projects are designed to build global adaptation capacity and enhance the resilience of nations facing the impacts of climate change.
