Oman's Sawda Umm al-Mu’minin School Science Garden Helps Teach GLOBE Protocols
Mar 14, 2024
The Science Garden at Sawda Umm al-Mu’minin School in the
Al-Dhahirah Governorate (Oman) is the main pillar on which the GLOBE
Environmental Team relies. It is environmentally friendly as it
contains hydroponics as well as a drip irrigation process using a
timer and a solar-powered fountain from which the school’s students
benefit. The GLOBE students use the garden to search for and solve
problems facing the environment, as well as conduct GLOBE's Soil and
Water Protocols.
