6th Arab Round Table on Sustainable Consumption and Production in Cairo
In Cairo, ESCWA and its partners, UN Environment’s Regional Office for West Asia, the League of Arab States and the Centre for Environment and Development for the Arab Region and Europe (CEDARE) co-organized the 6th Arab Round Table on Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP), on 9 and 10 October.
On the theme “From action plans to implementation”, the 6th Arab Round Table was an avenue for Arab countries, international and regional agencies, the private sector and non-governmental organizations to share lessons learned and discuss progress on SCP.
ESCWA moderated a session on the role of green technologies in advancing SCP, during which its activities and successful promising youth-led green technology initiatives from the Arab region were presented, particularly regarding food waste and conflict waste reuse.
