Agriculture and Land Reclamation Minister El Sayyed el Quseir underscored that the sustainability notion is achieved by promoting cooperation among individuals, the state, the private sector and civil society.
Sustainable development can only be attained through complete and full cooperation and integration of all these arms together, according to a statement by the ministry on Saturday 14/01/2023.
The statement said that Quseir’s remarks came while attending the third annual conference for sustainable development in Luxor Governorate on January 12-15 under the auspices of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi.
The conference was attended by the ministers of finance, social solidarity and emigration and a number of leaders of NGOs.
In a word during the ministerial session as part of the conference’s activities, Quseir highlighted the importance of the conference, which is being held amid several challenges facing the world at large, that , he added, are posing severe threats to the sustainable development issue, topped by food security.
The challenges include Covid-19 pandemic, Russian-Ukrainian crisis and climate changes, according to him.
All such challenges have affected the economies of countries, with special focus on international trade flow, supply chains, in addition to reducing production in the agricultural sector as well as upping prices of goods and products, added Quseir.
