Emadi said, "Crises and serious challenges in the region won’t find the desired positive solutions unless there is dialogue and consensus, and there is a sincere desire to meet with stakeholders and experts in order to develop a common vision to address the problems and crises escalating in the world, especially the Middle East.”
The minister hoped that initiatives and solutions will be reached to achieve economic development and prosperity for all countries and peoples of the region, hoping that the conference will enrich
its economic future.
Meanwhile, all the speakers at the conference unanimously agreed on the need to address a number of issues that have a direct impact on the region, including the implications of the continuation of totalitarian regimes, tackling corruption, caring for youth, promoting women’s issues, climate change and the role of education and modern technology in bringing about direct change in the region.
Former President of Malawi Joyce Banda stressed that countries are now required more than ever to support freedom of assembly, press and justice, in addition to addressing the challenges of climate change. At the same time she stressed the importance of empowering young people, including women in the economic system.
She said corruption has now become a global issue and bold efforts needed to
combat it.
Minister of Economy of Malta Edward Scicluna said most of the protests witnessed in many countries were spontaneous, have no leadership, and were not organised by the opposition, pointing out that these protests were the result of social and economic factors such as unemployment, poverty, declining living standards, and the marginalisation of young people and others. This has led to the rise of migration and the flow of migrants to the countries of Europe.
He also stressed the importance of combating corruption as one of the factors that inhibit the growth of the economy in many countries, while underlining the importance of developing education and strengthening the technology sector because of its important role in driving economic growth in various countries of the world.
Hani K Findakly of Potomac Capital said lack of job opportunities, marginalisation of youth, unemployment, poverty, corruption and the failure to cope with the huge technological revolutions along with other factors that have a direct impact on economic growth. He stressed the need for countries in the region to benefit from these developments and adopt new constructive policies that contribute to social welfare and economic growth.
The 14th edition of Enriching the Middle-East’s Economic Future Conference is organized by the Permanent Committee for Organizing Conferences at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in partnership with the UCLA Center for Middle East Development (CMED).
