On October 10, a seminar for the presentation of the results of the "diagnostic" phase of the Algerian CAMP was organised in Algiers, in the premises of the Ministry of Physical Planning and the Environment. Leaders of the national teams in charge of different thematic and cross-sectoral activities presented the results of their work in the first phase of the project to an audience composed of the members of the international committee of the CAMP, officials of the Ministry, local authorities, representatives of scientific institutions and NGOs operating in the CAMP area. The meeting was also attended by representatives of PAP/RAC and BP/RAC, as well as the international consultants engaged by the Centres to assist the national teams in the implementation of the activities. The meeting was honoured by the visit of Mr. Chérif Rahmani, Minister of Physical Planning and the Environment, who made a brief speech in which he thanked MAP, the leader of the national project and the national teams for the work done.
The seminar was preceded by the second project co-ordination meeting, that was organised on October 9 at the premises of CNERU. The project leaders, national team leaders and MAP consultants met to discuss the progress of the work on the second phase of the project, to confirm the calendar of the activities until the closure of the project, and to decide on the most efficient modalities of work.
