Maldives Envoy for Science and Technology Ahmed Shafeeq Ibrahim Moosa yesterday met with President of the Maldives Science Society (MSS) Mohamed Ijaz and Secretary General Amal Shaheed.
Moosa said it was important to have small scale grassroots movements to achieving important outcomes for the development of the nation.
The MSS could contribute to the government’s plans to make the Maldives the first carbon neutral country in the world, he suggested, and urged the organisation to work to make the public more aware of green technologies and environmentally friendly ways of living.
The two parties also discussed ways of providing government support and assistance for the MSS’s activities.
