The Association of Agricultural Research Institutions in the Near East and North Africa
(AARINENA) was established in 1985 as an instrument of change for strengthening national and
regional agricultural research capacities in order to reverse the downward trends in agricultural
productivity and the deterioration of the natural resources. AARINENA¿s Mission is to contribute to
the enhancement of agricultural and rural development in member countries through fostering
agricultural research and technology development and by strengthening collaboration among them and
with the outside world. AARINENA endeavors to assist member countries in creating effective
national agricultural research systems that serve the goals of sustainable agricultural development, as
well as strengthening regional and sub-regional scientific collaboration.
