This morning, the presidential 100 Million Trees initiative was launched at Suez University, in the presence of Major General Tarek Hamed El-Shazly, Governor of Suez, Prof. Dr. Ashraf Heniegal, President of Suez University, along with the university’s vice presidents, deans of faculties, and other officials. The event took place on the sidelines of the university’s monthly council meeting.
At the opening of the council meeting, Prof. Dr. Heniegal reaffirmed full support and absolute confidence in all the measures, decisions, and policies taken by His Excellency President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi regarding Egypt’s stance on various national and international issues.
The President of Suez University emphasized the presidential directives to develop Egyptian society through the exchange of expertise and the implementation of projects that contribute to sustainable development and the preservation of natural resources. These directives inspired the launch of the university’s initiative, “Beautify Your University by Planting a Tree”. The initiative was officially inaugurated by the Governor and the University President, who planted the first tree, followed by all council members. This act symbolizes guiding future generations toward the value of work and environmental sustainability, aiming to establish Suez as a green city.
Prof. Dr. Heniegal also expressed the university’s willingness to collaborate with the Governorate of Suez to support people with disabilities. He highlighted the university’s ongoing efforts to organize awareness seminars and educational events for students with disabilities in coordination with the University’s Disability Support Center. Despite the suspension of USAID funding, the center continues to provide services uninterrupted.
Additionally, Prof. Dr. Heniegal extended gratitude to the Governor of Suez for his efforts in allocating land for the University Hospital. He also provided updates on the establishment of Suez National University, which will include faculties of Dentistry, Physical Therapy, Petroleum and Mining Engineering, Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, Sciences, Languages and Humanities, Economics and Political Science, and Applied Arts. These faculties will offer innovative and interdisciplinary academic programs, combining engineering, technology, media, and fine arts education.
In his address, Major General El-Shazly commended the University President and council members, emphasizing the importance of national awareness and Egypt’s unwavering commitment to justice and truth.
Following the meeting, the Governor, University President, and council members proceeded to the university garden, where each member planted a tree as a symbol of commitment to progress and sustainability for future generations.
