Damietta – February 5, 2025 – The activities of the third meeting of the Climate Ambassadors Training Program - Phase Three, which is held under the title "Conflict Resolution" within the Capacity Building Program for the Integrated Coastal Zone Management Plan, concluded today. This program is part of the project to enhance adaptation to climate change in the Nile Delta and the North Coast.
The activities witnessed intensive discussions and working groups, which focused on training in conflict resolution and analysis skills, and working to avoid it.

This comes within the framework of the continuous efforts to achieve sustainability in the efforts to adapt to the effects of climate change in the coastal area on the Mediterranean Sea, under the umbrella of the principles of integrated management.
