Abstract
This study determined the sustainable management in Saudi Arabia. More specifically, the concerns of this study were: resources, safety, environment, strategies, practices, barriers/challenges, and problems associated with its implementation. The descriptive research method was employed and observation as a technique of collective information. The articles were collected using Google scholar and peer-reviewed research articles. It involves reading wide on a specialized field, analyzing and synthesizing main ideas, and developing new insights from the researcher. The study is an exploratory research design and analysis style to gather data relating to sustainable management in Saudi Arabia. Findings obtained are as follows: (1) Water resources, the findings revealed that there is an “increase within the utilization of nontraditional of freshwater and wastewater” and “replenish the groundwater and ecological use.” The findings more unconcealed that in Saudi Arabia there is an “adequate supplies available for food and energy production.” (2) Water Safety, the findings disclosed that they “have access to safe, spare, and reasonable to fulfill basic wants for drinking, sanitation, and hygiene, to safeguard health and well-being.” (3) Water Safety, the findings disclosed that they “have access to safe, spare, and reasonable to fulfill basic wants for drinking, sanitation, and hygiene, to safeguard health and well-being.” (4) Strategies, the findings discovered within the study that, “their area unit innovative methods which will facilitate communities conserve and upgrade their existing infrastructure, “developing new technology, gathering, desalinization, and treatment,” and “encouraging investment in and enlarged collaboration on management technologies,” and “generating higher policies through dialogue, information exchange, and communication.” (5) Practices, the findings disclosed that there have been “unsustainable adaptation practices, continued to exploit groundwater or increase the application of untreated sewer water.” Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency more than the eightieth percent of total demands falls on the consumption practices within the agricultural sector, which uses an outsized proportion of nonrenewable groundwater; and (6) Barriers/Problems and Challenges, the findings revealed that “water scarcity is not solely a problem of accessibility, but the quality of accessible water. The water shortage, poor sanitation, and poor hygiene” however, the challenges faced are: a) Depleted understanding of policy instruments in management will affect the economy and growth; b) Restricted application of a holistic approach in policymaking, multi-sector involvement and low coordination of roles and responsibilities; and c) Off cooperation, joint analysis actions, and data sharing. Based on the findings, the following conclusions are derived: (1) The climate change is contributing to scarceness not solely through accumulated temperatures and prolonged drought periods that place a strain on demand, and existing resources however additionally through the degradation of resources through extreme precipitation events that carry pathogens and alternative contaminants into waterways via runoff and flooding, and (2) Protecting human health in the face of climate change and scarcity will be largely dependent on the resources available to communities to conserve and provide access to safe drinking and adequate sanitation. Based on the foregoing findings and conclusions, the following recommendations are offered: (1) Create an environment which enables Saudi Arabia to work toward ‘Clean Water and Sanitation’ through a holistic approach; (2) Continuously monitoring quality and responding early to what can become highly damaging and costly problems; (3) Reuse-recycling of waste material and industrial waste; and (4) Academia and other community leaders should play a leading role in increasing community awareness of sustainability.
