As part of its ongoing efforts to enhance academic participation in national forums and strengthen communication between research institutions and executive sectors, Assistant Professor Dr. Ahmed Saud Mohammed, a researcher at the Upper Euphrates Center for Sustainable Development Research at Anbar University and a member of the National Council of Experts, represented the center at the scientific events organized by Al-Warith Academy for Sustainable Development and Strategic Studies.
The forum witnessed a significant official and academic presence, headed by the Secretary-General of the Holy Shrine of Imam Hussein, Professor Hassan Rashid Jawad Al-Abaiji, along with representatives from the Ministries of Water Resources, Agriculture, and Environment, and a host of senior experts and academics. The events focused on developing a "strategic platform" aimed at:
- Institutionalizing the relationship between the outputs of scientific research and executive decision-making.
- Developing sustainable solutions to address the rapidly evolving climate and environmental challenges in Iraq.
Over three days, the forum included in-depth specialized sessions that discussed vital issues affecting the country's national security, most markedly:
- The water scarcity crisis: Presenting strategic options based on up-to-date hydrological data.
- Desertification and food security: Reviewing ways to reduce land degradation and ensure the sustainability of the food supply.
- Sectoral integration: Emphasizing the need for high-level coordination among relevant ministries to ensure that scientific recommendations are translated into tangible action.
This participation underscores the leading role of the Upper Euphrates Center in supporting national decision-making with sound scientific studies and working alongside state institutions to overcome current environmental challenges.
