Dr. Huda Al-Dairi Wins ALECSO Award for Creativity and Innovation

Introduction

In a significant achievement for Omani education, Dr. Huda bint Mubarak Al-Dairi has been awarded the prestigious ALECSO Award for Creativity and Innovation for Young Researchers in the Arab World. This accolade, presented by the Arab Organization for Education, Culture and Science (ALECSO), recognizes her groundbreaking research on the role of public school principals and teachers in promoting green economy principles within educational settings.

The Research Focus

Dr. Al-Dairi’s research titled “The Extent of Practice of Public School Principals and Their Teachers in Activating Green Economy Areas in Education” delves into how educational leaders can enhance sustainability in schools. The study aims to explore the mechanisms that can be implemented to align educational practices with Oman Vision 2040, a strategic framework aimed at creating a more sustainable and diversified economy.

Importance of Green Economy in Education

The green economy is crucial for fostering sustainable development, especially in educational contexts. By integrating green principles into school curricula and practices, educational institutions can play a pivotal role in shaping environmentally conscious future leaders. Dr. Al-Dairi’s findings reveal that while public school principals and teachers are actively engaging in promoting green initiatives, there is variability in their level of engagement across different green economy areas.

ALECSO’s Commitment to Scientific Research

The ALECSO Award not only highlights individual achievements but also underscores the organization’s commitment to advancing scientific research in member states. ALECSO aims to support innovative Arab researchers and foster a culture of scientific inquiry and innovation among youth. This recognition encourages more scholars to explore impactful research areas, particularly in environmental sustainability.

Conclusion

Dr. Huda Al-Dairi’s award-winning research is a testament to the vital role of education in promoting sustainable practices. As Oman moves towards its Vision 2040 goals, studies like hers will be essential in guiding educational leaders and policymakers in implementing effective strategies for a greener future. With continued support from organizations like ALECSO, the future of scientific research in the Arab world looks promising.
