He emphasized that environmental scouting is not only a public service activity but also an educational approach designed to instill environmental awareness and encourage responsible behavior among young people.

The launch event featured a series of hands-on activities, including planting seedlings, sowing seeds, and distributing them throughout the park to support vegetation growth and enhance biodiversity.

Founded in 1961, the Saudi Arabian Scouts Association is a member of the World Organization of the Scout Movement and operates under the umbrella of the Ministry of Education. 

Over the decades, Saudi scouts have played a visible role in community service, disaster response, and public event organization, including supporting pilgrim services during Hajj and Umrah seasons.
