Ammon News - Jordan has signed an agreement for its participation in Expo 2023 Doha, an international horticultural exhibition to be held in the October 2023- March 2024 period, under the theme "Green Desert, Better Environment".

According to a statement released by the ministry on Wednesday, the Secretary-General of the Ministry of Industry, Dana Alzoubi, said that Jordan's participation in the high-profile exhibition is part of efforts to strengthen Jordanian-Qatari relations.

She also noted that Jordan is supportive of novel approaches to problems that have garnered international attention, such as the fight against desertification through technologically advanced agriculture and a heightened sensitivity to environmental concerns.

It is hoped that Expo 2023 Doha, the first international horticultural exhibition to be held in Qatar, the Middle East, and North Africa, will provide a platform from which to strengthen international efforts to combat desertification, introduce more environmentally friendly production methods, and increase worldwide food security.
