The Community Observatory aims to build a generation that is aware of its societal issues and capable of actively contributing to solutions and community initiatives, by involving university students in field monitoring activities, volunteer work, and awareness campaigns.

It also works to promote the values of cooperation, belonging, and social responsibility, while providing students with opportunities to gain practical experience and field skills that help prepare young cadres who are more capable of making an impact and driving positive changes within society.

This introductory series aims to present the objectives and various activities of the Observatory, and to encourage students and those interested in volunteer work to join and actively participate in serving the community.
