The event was designed to ensure active participation, facilitate dynamic discussions on specific topics related to science diplomacy and the role of the Science Diplomacy Center in the region, allowing for a diverse range of perspectives to be heard. This ensured that member states not only collaboratively designed the Center&#8217;s initiatives, but also reinforced their ownership and engagement in the SDC&#8217;s activities.
