Libya is set to host the 45th session of the Islamic World Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organisation (ICESCO) Executive Council in Tripoli in January 2025, marking a milestone in its contributions to Islamic educational and cultural development.
The agreement to hold the summit was formalized in Rabat, Morocco, through a signing ceremony between Libya’s Permanent Representative to ICESCO, Mohamed Amari Zayed, and ICESCO General Secretariat Director Salem Al-Habsi. Al-Habsi expressed confidence in Libya’s ability to host the high-profile event, which will include a special consultative session addressing challenges and opportunities for the Islamic world.
“We are fully committed to providing all necessary resources to ensure the success of these meetings,” said Amari Zayed, reaffirming Libya’s dedication to its hosting responsibilities.
The ICESCO Executive Council, comprising representatives from all 53 member states, serves as the organization’s primary oversight body. The council meets annually to evaluate performance reports and approve action plans that shape ICESCO’s vision for education, science, and culture in the Islamic world.
Hosting this summit positions Tripoli as a hub for fostering collaboration and tackling pressing issues in education and culture across the Islamic world, further solidifying Libya’s role on the global stage. (Extract from /www.libyanexpress.com)
