It was a wonderful workshop in Muscat, and I was honoured to contribute my experience with UNESCO (paper title: Why UNESCO Matters in the MENA Region: Policy, Knowledge, and Social Transformation) to the AGYA working group ‘Dynamics of Transformation’ that explored the role of consultancies in policymaking across the Arab world, from education reform to energy strategy, and examined ways to incorporate local leadership. This will be the foundation for a future publication.
