Environmental study to be distributed in Arab states

An environment study by Moroccan expert Mohamed Beryane that was awarded the prize of the Arab environment ministers' council will be published by the council technical secretariat for distribution in Arab states and Arab, regional and international organizations.

The Moroccan expert had been awarded the $ 5,000 prize for his research study on environment strategy and tourism development in the Moroccan Atlantic city of Agadir.

The study tackled various aspects related to tourism and environment mainly at the levels of nature, economy, population and architecture.

The study tried to underline the link existing between three elements in every development project, namely economic choices, management means and planning and natural resources protection. It also underlined the connection existing between tourism as a key economic sector and environment as a heritage requiring protection.
