“The CEOSS’ president : I am pleased with the success of the eighth Arab-European dialogue, and we seek to enhance opportunities for effective dialogue between the Arab region and Europe. Media, challenges of civil work, cultural specificities, environmental issues, climate change, technological progress, and artificial intelligence were among the main recommendations of the Arab-European dialogue by the Evangelical Authority.
The Forum for Cultural Dialogue at the Evangelical Coptic Authority concluded the eighth conference of the Arab-European dialogue, titled “Religion and Society,” on Friday, with the presence of Dr. Reverend Andre Zaki, head of the Evangelical community in Egypt and head of the Evangelical Coptic Authority for Social Services. The conference took place at the headquarters of the Evangelical Coptic Authority for Social Services and included the participation of 17 countries from the European Union, Russia, and the Arab region, who are members of the Arab-European dialogue.
Throughout its sessions, the dialogue discussed the most significant challenges facing society locally and globally over three days, along with several field visits that included a visit to His Excellency the Minister of Endowments, Dr. Mukhtar Gomaa, and the Egyptian Center for Thought and Strategic Studies.
Reverend Andre Zaki expressed his great satisfaction with the success of the eighth Arab-European dialogue, saying, “I am pleased with the success of the eighth Arab-European dialogue, and we seek to enhance opportunities for effective dialogue between the Arab region and Europe.”
One of the key recommendations made during the closing session of the conference is to provide more shared spaces between member countries. Participants also called for highlighting environmental issues, climate change, technological progress, and artificial intelligence, along with media, challenges of civil work, and cultural specificities, all of which are topics related to the broader discussion of the role of civil work in individual and community development. The attendees praised the discussion that took place in an atmosphere of freedom, which enhanced opportunities for understanding and explaining influential and beneficial societal experiences and specificities.”
