Arab Finance: Minister of International Cooperation Rania Al Mashat is probing with the Regional Director of the Near East, North Africa and Europe Division (NEN) in the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) Dina Saleh ways to implement projects within the food pillar of the Nexus of Water, Food, and Energy (NWFE) program, as stated on June 3rd.
Al Mashat noted that the government is looking forward to bolstering cooperation with the fund to support young farmers to adapt to climate change, along with promoting rural communities.
Executing the projects within NWFE’s food nexus would boost the country’s resistance against climate change, enhance agricultural practices and irrigation in old lands, increase farmers’ production and income, shore up the efficiency of irrigation systems, and promote food and water security, the minister added.
