Specific projects will be tailored to the unique needs of each region, taking into account local ecological conditions and community priorities. The Ministry of Environment and Quality of Life is committed to providing the necessary resources and technical expertise to ensure the success of this vital initiative.
The campaign’s launch in Tipaza, a region particularly vulnerable to wildfires, underscores the urgency of addressing environmental challenges and the importance of proactive conservation efforts. The Ministry hopes that this initiative will serve as a model for other regions facing similar challenges and will inspire greater awareness and action on environmental protection across the country.
