ACSAD presents the results of its work in agricultural development during a consultative workshop in Cairo

The working paper, submitted by the Arab Center for Studies of Arid Zones and Dry Lands ACSAD, during an Arab consultative workshop in Cairo today, presented the research and applied studies completed by the Center including proposals aimed at developing joint Arab action and achieving food security.

The workshop was held under the auspices of the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States and was attended by a number of Arab ministers and directors of organizations. The Director-General of ACSAD, Dr. Nasr al-Din al-Obaid, spoke about the contribution of the research conducted by the Center to reducing the food gap and developing Arab agriculture.

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.

Dr. Al-Obeid also spoke during his meeting with the Secretary-General of the Arab League Ahmad Abul Gheit, and the Assistant Secretary-General for Economic Affairs, Dr. Ali bin Ibrahim Al-Maliki, about the center’s work, activities, and participation in international meetings and regional conferences, enhancing the role of the League and its organizations, in addition to its role in the fields of agriculture, water security, and livelihood development,
