Saudi Arabia’s Ambitious Mega Projects Spark Criticism Over Human Rights Violations
Saudi Arabia’s ambitious megaprojects, funded by the Vision 2030 initiative, have come under scrutiny for alleged human rights violations. The £1 trillion investment includes projects like Neom and The Line, aimed at transforming the country’s economy and reducing its reliance on oil. However, critics point to forced evictions, imprisonment, and executions in the process, raising concerns about the impact on local communities. While these megaprojects showcase Saudi Arabia’s vision for the future, questions persist about the human cost and ethical considerations associated with their implementation.
