With the fall of the Assad regime on December 8, 2024, a new era began in Syria. The fact that the overwhelming majority of regional and global actors welcomed the regime change in Damascus was a development that revived hopes for the country’s recovery and for addressing the destruction and wounds caused by 13 years of civil war. In this context, a one-day conference will be held, bringing together experts who will deliver presentations within an analytical discussion framework to examine the dynamics of the transition process from different angles, provide a general assessment of the first year, and offer projections for the future.
We would be honored to have you with us at this conference titled “Syria One Year After: Recovery and Reconstruction.”
OUR REGISTRATION CAPACITY HAS BEEN REACHED. WE SINCERELY APPRECIATE YOUR STRONG INTEREST.
THE CONFERENCE WILL BE BROADCAST LIVE ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS.
