Description

In 2016, the Ningxia Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Services hosted the Technical Training Course for Desertification Prevention and Control in Arab Countries in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. There were 19 trainees representing seven Arab League member countries. These countries included Libya, Algeria, Jordan, and Egypt. Sudan's Ministry of Agriculture was represented by an engineer. The training course showed Ningxia's success with soil and water conservation and desertification prevention and control work to the trainees. The training was opened on July 22, 2016 and ended on roughly August 22, 2016. Each of the these courses lasted one month. All linked projects are Chinese-organized desertification training courses held in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region for Arab countries. Project ID#85226 captures the first, held in 2006. Project ID#85227 captures the training held in 2009. Project ID#85228 captures the one held in 2010. Project ID#60679 captures the one held in 2011. Project ID#85225 captures the one held in 2013. Project ID#66930 captures the one held in 2015. Project ID#85229 captures the one held in 2017.

Additional details

The Chinese training course name was 阿拉伯国家防沙治沙技术培训班. Since the Arab League includes countries not included in the Middle East and a full list of the participating countries in this training course is unknown, the recipient has been coded as "Multi-Region." The unknown participants were assumed to be ODA-eligible (Algeria, Jordan, Libya, Sudan, and Egypt were all eligible in 2016). Furthermore, sources do not specifically state that Ningxia Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences organized this training, but because the academy has been involved in every training thus far and was mentioned by the sources, AidData has judged that it was an organizer of this desertification training course.
