The project on “Promoting Food and Water Security through Cooperation and Capacity Development in the Arab Region” aims at the development of an institutionalized national and regional monitoring mechanism through an overall assessment of existing national food security policies and strategies in each Arab country. A comparative analysis of these policies was undertaken to establish an enhanced regional food security monitoring system that is tailored according to regional specificities and responds to current and projected priority concerns of the Arab region.

The workshop focused on a procedural framework for implementing cybercrime law, combating cybercrime and enhancing cybersafety in the Arab region.

This meeting will be held in accordance with the ETC Statute to give guidance to the Centre on its future work plan and technical issues that relate to its work, and to identify member countries’ priorities and challenges in harnessing national capabilities in science, technology, and innovation in the implementation of the sustainable development goals.

The objective of this preparatory meeting is to discuss the Arab region’s major energy issues and review the progress in achieving the Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG7) on “Affordable and Clean Energy” and its interlinkage with other development issues within the Agenda 2030 on Sustainable Development.
