The meeting, held earlier this week in the Egyptian capital, came within the framework of NARO's cooperation with the Union for African Journalists, bringing together African journalists from various countries, according to NARO's statement.

During the meeting, a documentary featuring the Egyptian government's successful transformative development projects in various sectors, including infrastructure and urban development, was screened.

Director of NARO Mohamed Higazy  discussed NARO’s history and achievements, noting that the role of local authorities and governorates has become important to African sustainable development.

He discussed various initiatives aimed at creating job opportunities for youth and women, including the "Hands of Africa" project, an electronic platform designed to promote African culture through the marketing of artisanal products.

NARO, based in Cairo, plays a crucial role in fostering dialogue among media professionals, highlighting regional issues and cultural connections, and contributing significantly to the broader development of media in Africa.
