KSA + Tunisia partner on agritech + water <\/strong>security<\/strong>: <\/strong>Saudi Arabia\u2019s government signed seven MoUs with its Tunisian counterpart aimed at strengthening knowledge transfer and cooperation in the agricultural research, water security, environmental protection, and meteorology fronts during a high level meeting in Tunis, the Saudi Press Agency<\/a> reported on Thursday. The meetings were attended by the kingdom\u2019s ministers of industry and mineral resources, finance, and economy and planning.<\/p>\n

And there\u2019s more cooperation to come: <\/strong>Tunisia expects to bring \u201cmajor joint investment projects\u201d to the table by 1H 2024 in a bid to attract Saudi developers to its water, agri-foods, and environmental protection industries, TAP<\/a> reports, citing comments made by Tunisia's representative for the Tunisian-Saudi Business Council Mohamed Kooli on Wednesday. <\/p>\n

REMEMBER- Climate-induced drought is taking a toll on Tunisia\u2019s agri sector and economy: <\/strong>Months of drought<\/a> and intense heat waves in Tunisia over the last years led the North African country to call for the establishment<\/a> of a joint program to alleviate the impact of climate change on economic development. The World Bank forecasts 71%<\/a> of climate-related GDP losses in Tunisia by 2050 will be attributable to water shortages, noting inaction to shore up water supplies and step up its flooding and coastal protections could drop the country\u2019s GDP up to 3.4<\/a>%<\/a> \u2014 translating to USD 1.8 bn annually \u2014 by 2030. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
