The Abu Dhabi Department of Energy (DoE), in collaboration with Majalis Abu Dhabi at the Presidential Court, has held a series of community awareness sessions during the first half of 2025 focused on gas safety in buildings.
The initiative is part of the DoE’s broader efforts to promote public safety and strengthen social awareness across the Emirate.
Aimed at improving safe gas usage practices in homes and businesses, the sessions were designed to enhance community preparedness and reduce the risk of accidents.
By offering guidance on emergency response and safe handling procedures, the campaign supports the protection of lives, property, and infrastructure across Abu Dhabi.
The sessions were hosted at community Majalis in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, and Al Dhafra, including venues in Mohammed bin Zayed City, Khalifa City, Al Falah, Al Rahbah, Al Sila, Remaah, and Al Alia.
Attendees were encouraged to ask questions, share feedback, and contribute their experiences, fostering two-way dialogue between residents and DoE representatives.
Eng. Ahmed Alsheebani, Executive Director of the Petroleum Products Sector at the DoE, emphasised the role of Majalis as key platforms for public engagement and consultation.
He stressed the importance of incorporating community input into service development and affirmed the DoE’s commitment to working with gas providers to update systems and adopt best practices to mitigate safety risks.
The initiative also falls under the broader "Year of Community" framework, underscoring the DoE’s drive to build stronger public connections and promote a culture of safety through inclusive communication.
