About Us
Our Story
Nuwat is the Arabic word for “nucleus”, the heart of every living cell which embodies genes from the past and those that will dictate the future. Through channeling the wisdom from our ancestors and combining it with what we know today, we intend to act as a catalyst for positive change to create a world that is healthier and in harmony with nature.
Nuwat was founded in April 2023 in the only island nation in the Arab world, the Kingdom of Bahrain. Its founding was motivated by the need to establish an environmental research and education hub that can better inform decision makers and improve human well-being through addressing climate change, especially that it is situated in the hottest sea on the planet – the Arabian Gulf and is in the frontline of climate impacts.
Nuwat works on transforming good intentions to reality through its holistic and integrated way of work that embraces both people and nature through collaborations thereby enabling sustainable development.
Just like nature, we continue to evolve, move and grow. Thus, although born in Bahrain, we are a global citizen by nature.

WHAT WE DO?
Nuwat is a think tank, education provider and advisory that specialises in environmental research and conservation on a national, regional and international level. We contribute towards keeping our natural ecosystems healthy and productive which in turns feeds into providing safe and sustainable systems all of which are vital for human health.
We do this through producing ecological data which aids in advising governmental entities thereby influencing environmental policy and thus, positive change. In addition, we work on educating people and spreading awareness through embracing multiple approaches including hands on, vertical and experimental learning. We deeply believe that for future generations to exist on a healthy planet, it is mandatory for all to cultivate a culture of sustainability and environmental consciousness and this is what we strive to achieve through our work.
OUR VISION
To be the life force of environmental sustainability through nature rejuvenation and conservation rooted in the Middle East. We seek to branch globally and awaken the environmental consciousness of our societies and those around us through raising, training and inspiring the next generation of Earth stewards.
OUR MISSION
Nuwat works on documenting local knowledge and developing scientific knowledge to help address environmental and social challenges through merging them while enabling economic growth thereby securing a sustainable future for all.
