Edama at DIHAD 2025
Recently, the world has been going through many political and economic conflicts, which are increasing sharply with the increase in conflicts between countries. Sometimes, in one country, members of society conflict with each other.
Indeed, we are fully aware of the impact of this on the economy of countries and the entire world, as these conflicts result in a significant deterioration in the state’s resources.
The number of refugees in other countries also increases, causing a worsening and deterioration in the economic situation of the countries that receive refugees.
So, what is the solution?
This is what the Dihad 2025 conference discusses and seeks to find a solution to, as the conference accuses this world of putting an end to these conflicts to preserve a secure future for the coming generations and live in a sustainable environment, and to find solutions to develop sustainable development in all countries of the world.
Objectives of the Dihad 2025 Conference
The conference discusses a large number of global and societal issues and seeks to solve them. These issues exist in our reality, and each of us suffers from them in one way or another, especially issues related to sustainability for future generations.
Edama played an effective role in the exhibition, as it serves as a thought leader for many of the effective solutions it provides to solve sustainability problems in the world by combining investment and sustainable development.
In Dihad 2025, we find the direction that the world should move towards to obtain a better and sustainable future.
The conference was also interested in discussing some financing matters due to the weakness of financing.
Dihad heads stated that the expected funding percentage was $20 million higher than what was collected, so funding problems were among the issues being discussed this year.
Let's learn more about the conference's objectives and what it seeks to achieve.
Sustainable Development and Its Impact on the World
Sustainable development means preserving the environment, promoting social justice, and ensuring a secure future for future generations.
It is not just a solution to the current problems we face, but its primary goal is to have an adequate environment and resources for future generations.
Sustainable development depends on three dimensions: environment, society, and economy, as this affects society and contributes to protecting resources and improving the quality of current and future life.
And increasing the resilience of societies, as countries that invest in sustainable development are more prepared to confront disasters (such as earthquakes or epidemics) because they have strong infrastructure and emergency plans.
The Dihad 2025 conference recognizes the relationship of sustainable development to humanitarian work and the future, as sustainable development aims to build a decent life in the long term.
It also recognizes the challenges that countries face due to the presence of short-term policies that do not take into account the future, conflicts and wars that destroy development efforts, and climate change and its impact on resources.
Therefore, Dihad participants declared that investing in sustainable development is a must, and companies and communities should put this rule as a foundation in their lives to provide a sustainable future and a decent life.
The Role of Finance in Relief and Sustainability
There is no rescue operation, no development project, and no sustainable infrastructure that can be built without sufficient, smart, and sustainable financial resources, so financing is the heart of the humanitarian relief operation, as well as the heart of development.
Funding is used to provide food, water, and shelter, equip emergency teams, transport equipment and supplies, and operate humanitarian organizations. In everything we want to do, we need money.
Funding is a tool for creating dignity, not just for survival.
One of the reasons for weak funding is the separation of humanitarian and development funding, each of which has different sources and different priorities, and the lack of flexible funding, as most of the funding is highly allocated and does not allow movement according to need.
A lack of transparency and accountability sometimes leads to a loss of trust.
The politicized funding of some crises receives significant support, while others are forgotten, which is a prominent factor in societies that contributes to a lack of easy access to funding based on need.
Among the proposals proposed by Dubai International Humanitarian Aid & Development 2025 are developing innovative financing mechanisms, engaging the private sector and banks in development efforts, launching proactive funds to address crises before they occur, and empowering communities to manage their resources and develop their economic capabilities.
These solutions are truly remarkable because they bridge the gap between funders and affected communities.
The Exponential Impact of Climate Change
In recent years, climate change has become not just an environmental issue but a global threat to food security, political stability, and public health.
The biggest problem is that its effects are not only gradual but are accelerating exponentially, making the response more complex and urgent.
This is because the accelerating impact of climate change causes displacement, famine, job losses, and new conflicts over resources.
Among the solutions proposed at Dihad 2025 are integrating climate change into humanitarian and development plans, encouraging investment in climate-resilient infrastructure, launching green financing initiatives to support vulnerable communities, and promoting climate justice so that industrialized countries can shoulder their responsibilities towards the most vulnerable.
The Impact of Dihad Expo on the World 2025
In a time of successive global crises, from wars to natural disasters, from food insecurity to climate change, the Dihad Exhibition and Conference proves that it is not just an annual event but a pivotal event that leaves a clear impact on the global humanitarian and development map.
Dihad 2025 brought together decision-makers, UN organizations, government agencies, representatives of civil society, the private sector, and academia, resulting in an open and frank dialogue about challenges, opportunities, and shared responsibilities.
Humanitarian relief, societal issues, and sustainable development issues were discussed, reaching clear solutions to create a dignified life for a brighter future.
It also encouraged and guided many companies to develop relief methods and combine technology and humanitarian aid to facilitate relief efforts globally.
Taqat was a thought leader with its innovative ideas for developing relief work and investing in sustainable development through Edama, one of the company's pioneering projects.
