The Forward7 team, together with 10 engineering students from King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals, took part in an 8-day field trip to support sustainable development efforts in the United Republic of Tanzania.
In August 2025, Forward7 launched its second field trip to the United Republic of Tanzania. The trip brought together engineering students from King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals and local engineering students from the University of Dar es Salaam’s College of Engineering and Technology.
Build effective partnerships between Saudi and Tanzanian engineering students through joint research, design, and innovation.
Provide clean cooking solutions based on information gathered through surveys conducted during the trip.
Develop leadership and innovation skills among young engineers to prepare them to address global energy challenges through collaboration.
Conducted as part of energy mapping activities to assess energy access, infrastructure planning, and affordability.
Focused on fuel use and challenges in transitioning to clean cooking.
Supporting a better understanding of the commercial side of clean cooking access.
A sustainable future begins with the "Empowering Africa" initiative, which is a collaboration with the Saudi Ministries of Communications, Information Technology, and Health, represented by Seha Virtual Hospital. This initiative involves joint field visits to various African countries, works to provide clean cooking solutions, connectivity, E-Health, and E-Learning solutions.
