Supporting the resort's Mangrove Restoration project, this immersive experience offered guests a chance to participate in an enlightening session highlighting the crucial role mangrove forests play in preserving the planet's health. Celebrated Qatari athlete and newly appointed Friend of Chiva-Som and Wellness Icon in Qatar, Mariam Faris, also joined the dedicated initiative.

“Our mangrove restoration efforts are part of our long-term commitment to environmental sustainability,” said Mr. Ammar Samad, General Manager of Zulal Wellness Resort by Chiva-Som. “Welcoming Mariam to support this initiative further amplifies our mission to protect and regenerate natural ecosystems. Her dedication to wellness and her influence within the community makes her the perfect ambassador for our brand as we continue our commitment to holistic wellbeing and sustainability. Together, we strive to foster a deeper connection between personal wellbeing and the health of our natural environment.” 

Collaborating with public advocates who share the same vision and passion in sustainability, the 'Friends of Chiva-Som' brand-wide campaign is dedicated to preserving and protecting the natural environment surrounding its two resorts – Chiva-Som Hua Hin in Thailand and Zulal Wellness Resort by Chiva-Som in Qatar – as well as to promoting sustainable tourism and wellness practices within the industry globally.
