Buraidah, July (پاکستان پوائنٹ نیوز ‎‎‎ 28 يوليو 2025ء) This acknowledgment was made during a presentation by Saudi Green Building Forum Secretary-General Eng. Faisal Al-Fadl at a regional session chaired by the UN Economic and Social Council. Al-Fadl described the initiative as an integrated national model that harmonizes environmental, economic, and social dimensions.

He noted that the initiative has evolved into a regional role model, leading to the planting of over five million trees, creating hundreds of green jobs, and fostering sustainable urban transformation.

The Green Qassim Land initiative aligns with the Kingdom's vision for sustainable development, contributing to SDG 13 (Climate Action) by enhancing vegetation cover and combating desertification. It also supports goals related to rural employment, clean water, sustainable cities, and responsible consumption and production.
