Qatar General Electricity and Water Corporation (KAHRAMAA) was felicitated yesterday in a glittering ceremony held at Sharq hotel & Spa organized by Doha Film Institute (DFI) for coordinating a short film contest over Tarsheed theme.
The event was graced with the presence of senior functionaries of both organizations, environment- champions, contestants and others. The certificate of Appreciation for KAHRAMAA was received by Mr. Fahad Al Saud Hanzab, Head of Legal Monitoring section at KAHRAMAA’s Conservation and Energy Efficiency department.
During the event, three best short films on the theme which were declared winners out of total 49 contestants during 2nd Annual Tarsheed Anniversary, were screened at the occasion. Apart from the winners, other best five movies were also screened and selected for sponsorship and display across the number of schools in Qatar under Tarsheed Training Program. All these runners- up were also felicitated at the occasion.
The contest was organized in the month of April this year as part of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between KAHRAMAA and DFI aiming cooperation for creating awareness about ongoing National Program for Conservation and Energy Efficiency (Tarsheed). The very purpose of the competition was to promote positive values of Tarsheed among residents by involving them into the cause through their audio-visual creativity.
As part of the MoU, DFI invited entries for short film- making contest under the theme of conserving electricity and water. The films were of minimum and maximum one to three minutes durations and all the entries were directly submitted to DFI.
By organizing and coordinating such events, KAHRAMAA is committed to its responsibility for providing sustainable resources for electricity and water for the benefits of the nation and for improving the quality life for the generations to come in line with QNV 2030 which calls for environmental management and protection aimed at ensuring harmony and consistency with economic and social development.
The National program for Conservation and Energy Efficiency (Tarsheed) which was launched as a campaign in year 2012 under the patronage of His Highness the Emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al- Thani, is marching towards achieving good result. It has achieved a great progress in terms of electricity and water conservation in 2013.
The prime target of Tarsheed is to reduce the per capita water and electricity consumption in Qatar by 35% & 20%, respectively up to 2017.
