ACSAD presents the results of its work in agricultural development during a consultative workshop in Cairo
Al-Obeid reviewed ACSAD’s vision to confront the existing environmental challenges and their impact on agricultural activity by implementing the Cairo Declaration issued by the General Assembly of the ACSAD Center in its 36th session on adapting to climate change and mitigating its negative effects on the Arab region as well as giving importance to joint Arab action institutions and organizations specialized in the agricultural sector.
Al-Obeid stressed that ACSAD is working to follow up on emerging technical and scientific developments at the international level in order to develop an information system with the aim of achieving the joint action strategy and increasing its effectiveness. The Center is developing its scientific, technical and research capabilities to achieve Arab food security in partnership with the concerned parties in this regard.
On the sidelines of the meetings, Dr. Al-Obeid discussed during his talks with the Ministers of Agriculture in Lebanon, Palestine, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Egypt the joint projects implemented by ACSAD in those countries, and finding effective ways to develop joint businesses, programs and activities to confront the existing economic and social challenges so as to open new horizons that help provide self-sufficiency.
