2022-02-20 00:00 - 2022-02-26 23:59 | Expo 2020 Dubai, Al Wasl Avenue, Dubai, Emirati Arabi Uniti
From farm to plate, the food value chain is an integral part of society, providing income and livelihoods for billions – but the way in which we currently cultivate our food is a significant contributor to climate change through deforestation, land degradation, pollution and food waste. Expo is a platform that brings stakeholders across value chains to spotlight localised solutions to food, nutrition and farming challenges. Programmes will explore how to grow food sustainably in order to eat and earn better and will encompass approaches to climate-friendly agriculture and agricultural practices that maximise productivity while operating in harmony with the environment.

Presentation of the book "LAZIO AT EXPO 2020 DUBAI - Culture is Innovation, Sustainability and Wellbeing"
2022-02-21 12:30 - 14:00 | Italian Industry & Commerce Office in the UAE, 48 Burj Gate Tower - Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai, Emirati Arabi Uniti
12.30 p.m. (Dubai time) 9.30 a.m. (Italian time)

The book devotes ample space to the knowledge of Lazio and the United Arab Emirates, through a geopolitical and economic framework, tracing their history and exploring their development over the centuries, up to the global implications that the Expo entails.For our Region, as well as for Italy as a whole, which has always been a land of encounters between peoples, talents and ingenuity, the Universal Exposition represents an important opportunity to consolidate the network of international, commercial and cultural relations, slowed down during the pandemic period, which was a hard blow to the global economic system, in order to restore hope for the future and write a new page of growth and development.Latium is not only a land to be discovered for its artistic and natural beauty and for its millenary history, it is also a region rich in opportunities where the most innovative companies and the most creative talents have found and still find a place, from fashion to aerospace, from food to scientific research in the pharmaceutical and health sectors.
