Meeting over Muslim brain drain in Berlin

A meeting of experts on Muslim brain drain was in Berlin Sunday to examine ways to take advantage from the expertise of Muslim scholars settled in the West.

The meeting, organized by educational, scientific and cultural Islamic organization (ISESCO) in cooperation with the World Islamic League, will also look into a project to set up a data bank on Muslims skills in Europe.

A statement released by the Rabat-based ISESCO said the meeting is part of its cultural strategy ratified by the 27th Islamic conference of foreign affairs ministers held recently in Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia.
