At the special invitation of the Director of the Marriage Support Fund of the Libyan Government, Al Arab University for Medical & Technological Sciences took part in the closing events of the Fourth Libyan Family Conference, held in Benghazi under the slogan “Constructive Awareness… Sustainable Security”.
The university was represented by its Deputy for Financial and Administrative Affairs, Dr. Ali Bagu, and the Director of the Community Service Office, Mr. Taha Al-Ferjani, underlining the university’s leading role in supporting community and national issues.
Strategic patronage and purposeful organization
The conference was held under the patronage of Libya’s National Security Adviser and organized and supervised directly by the Marriage Support Fund. It aimed to provide a forum for dialogue among academics, decision-makers and representatives of state institutions to strengthen social stability and national security.
Themes and workshops addressing family life
The conference included a series of awareness lectures, workshops and panel discussions focusing on three main themes:
- Social security: demographic change, food security, citizenship, and the effects of migration and displacement on the social fabric.
- Housing as a basic right: housing challenges in Libya and the role of the public and private sectors in providing decent housing for psychological and social stability.
- Constructive awareness and family cohesion: family awareness of national values, the role of education, and the influence of digital media and communication skills.
An ongoing community partnership
The university’s participation continues its close cooperation with the Marriage Support Fund, which it has previously hosted at earlier events, reflecting its belief in the importance of educational and community institutions working together to develop practical recommendations that protect Libyan families and strengthen their cohesion.
