3 October 2024, Cairo, Egypt<\/strong> \u2013 Officials from the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM), European Commission, and the League of Arab States (LAS) met yesterday in Cairo to advance the role of science in foreign affairs under the High-level Meeting on Science Diplomacy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In a region facing increasing cross-border challenges such as climate change, food and water security, and energy resources, science and innovation could play a significant role in bringing regional actors together. Participants discussed approaches to strengthen research infrastructures, mobility and training, and science advice for foreign policy.<\/p>\n

Held at the LAS Secretariat, the meeting was attended by former President of the European Commission Romano Prodi, UfM Secretary General Nasser Kamel, his Deputy for Research and Innovation Joan Borrell, LAS Secretary General Ahmed Aboul Gheit, EU Deputy Director General of DG Research and Innovation Signe Ratso, along with various diplomats and directors of institutes.<\/p>\n

Building on the 2023 Euro-Mediterranean Conference on Science Diplomacy, yesterday\u2019s meeting marks the first tangible outcome of an agreement signed earlier this year between the UfM and LAS on research and innovation, supported by the European Commission.<\/p>\n

UfM Secretary General Nasser Kamel highlighted the critical role of science in fostering dialogue and cooperation. \u201cAt a time when tensions are heightened, science\u2014through its universal language\u2014reminds us that dialogue remains possible. Science, technology, knowledge, and culture are not just bridges; they are catalysts for prosperity and sustainability across borders,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

UfM Deputy Secretary General Joan Borell added, \u201cResearch institutions can be critical drivers of this \u2018just\u2019 transition, transforming it from political aim to action on the ground, and helping us create the knowledge, skills, and awareness needed.\u201d<\/p>\n
