ELZUBI to Al-Ghad Newspaper: Environmental Governance for Protecting Forest Wealth

Dr. ELZUBI called for clear foundations to strengthen governance and transparency through public monitoring and evaluation mechanisms for forestry projects, and the establishment of a national supervisory authority to institutionalize community participation and ensure program implementation with accountability. He stressed the need to build sustainable operational capacities by training protection teams, upgrading warning networks, linking them to a clear national response plan, and securing flexible institutional financing that enables vital projects closer to field reality, with incentives for performance sustainability.
