Reem bint Ibrahim Al Hashemy, Minister of State for International Cooperation and Director General of Expo 2020 Dubai, received yesterday at the site of the international event Bill Gates, the American billionaire and co-founder of the technology giant Microsoft.
The visit of Bill Gates to Expo 2020 Dubai is of particular significance, as Expo 2020 Dubai collaborates with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to support community innovators with the ambition to improve the lives of individuals living in a variety of complex, fragile or marginalized human environments.
Gates began his visit to Expo 2020 Dubai with a bilateral meeting with His Excellency Reem Al Hashemi, before they visited the Expo Live pavilion, which cooperates directly with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, where Gates learned about the most prominent innovations supported by the program around the world with the aim of accelerating creative solutions that improve Quality of life while preserving our world.
During his tour of the Expo Live pavilion, Gates was introduced to a number of projects, including Ideapatech, an inexpensive initiative developed by Kitty Liao from the United Kingdom in order to keep important vaccines and medicines in good condition during long trips to remote areas.
Gates was also impressed by the Desert Control Project, a new technology from Norway intended to help create an agricultural revolution for arid regions. Gates learned how this technology turns weak soils into fertile soil quickly and without consuming large amounts of water.
Gates then headed to the Sustainability Pavilion, which represents a model of sustainable buildings that achieve energy self-sufficiency by relying on solar energy to generate electricity.
Speaking to the Expo TV channel, Gates urged the world to speed up the implementation of pledges for the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, with only eight years left on this important point.
Gates said that the world is required to act in the coming years to fulfill the commitments of the seventeen sustainable development goals adopted by world leaders at a historic UN summit in 2015, and implementation began in January 2016.
The Sustainable Development Goals stem from the Millennium Development Goals, which seek to end extreme poverty, halt the spread of AIDS, and provide primary education for all children by 2015.
Gates added that the world is going through a difficult stage in combating the Covid-19 pandemic, despite the success achieved in this regard; But he called for more work towards a fair distribution of vaccines.
