A Walk Through KAUST | Mangroves |
KAUST is home to a vibrant and thriving mangrove forest that spans over 150 hectares, in an otherwise arid surrounding environment. Thanks to local conservation efforts, and an Environmental Stewardship Program, KAUST mangrove forests have expanded more than 20 percent in the last decade alone. The booklet aims to encourage people to visit these mangrove areas and experience first-hand the natural world at their fingertips. Co-produced with KAUST HSE Department. |

A Walk Through KAUST | Artwork |
The sculptures in our community are the result of KAUST ART, an extensive program of artwork commissions that celebrate our university’s international platform of collaboration and exchange. It enhances our public spaces with interdisciplinary urban art projects intended to stimulate creativity and interaction. This booklet includes a curated selection of the many sculptures that enliven our community. We hope that you can gain a better understanding of the beautiful works that surround us here at KAUST.
