Produced by CPI Industry, publishers of Climate Control Middle East magazine, the World IEQ Forum is a mission-critical conference that brings together policymakers; regulators; civil, structural and MEP disciplines; architects; healthcare professionals; and building owners in aviation, education, healthcare, hospitality, retail and other sectors.

It typically addresses a broad sweep of Indoor Environmental Quality issues, but the 6th edition, to be held against the backdrop of the protracted pandemic, will seek to specifically address Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) issues with a view to advancing the understanding of design, installation and O&M strategies and solutions in the built-environment.

H.E. Al Abdooli is also the Director of Green Development & Environment Affairs Department at the Ministry. She has extensive experience – spanning over 17 years – in different fields, including Green Development, Sustainable Development and Green Economy, in addition to her expertise in developing policies, strategies and regulatory framework in air quality.

In her tenure, H.E. Al Abdooli had developed necessary policies for the private sector’s contribution in green development and for monitoring the transformation of the country towards a green economy. She subsequently handled the role of Director of Environmental Awareness and Education and Director of Air Quality at the Ministry. She is also serving as Chief Innovation Officer of the Ministry since March 2016.

“H.E. Al Abdooli’s varied experience in Green Development and her specific experience in air quality are exciting and inspiring from the point of view of the Forum,” said Surendar Balakrishnan, Co-Founder & Editorial Director, CPI Industry. “We see Her Excellency as sharing insights not only on IAQ but also on how to design, build and maintain our buildings in the context of energy efficiency.”

To date, the 6^th edition of the World IEQ Forum has attracted confirmation of participation from a galaxy of prominent GCC region-level and international speakers. It is co-hosted by Systemair and will see participation from AHRI, Belimo, Camfil, Condair and Eurovent Middle East, amongst others.
