The specific objectives of the meeting will be as follows:
1. To highlight a number of national cases from the Arab region where tools have been developed and applied to promote ethics in scientific research and technology applications, and learn from these experiences;
2. To discuss common elements among the presented national approaches, and explore the possibility of elaborating a regional approach (for example a regional charter) that could be applied by institutions and countries in the region;
