Workshop on executive mechanism for preparing Hajjah's Plan for 1447 AH
Hajjah - Saba: The local authority in Hajjah province organized a training workshop on the executive mechanism for preparing the province's plan for the year 1447 AH. The workshop discussed mechanisms for preparing the 1447 AH plan at the district level, including directives, priorities, executive mechanisms, and models for implementation in the districts. During the workshop, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Local Administration and Rural Development Dr. Mohammed Al-Madani emphasized the importance of developing plans that focus on local resources, activating overlooked resources, reducing dependence on external aid, and aligning with the government's Change and Development Program. He noted that problems in development often stem from poor planning, just as success is achieved when planning serves the millions rather than individuals with access to land, livestock, roads, equipment, farms, coasts, fisheries, crops, forests, and other resources. Al-Madani stressed the need to strengthen public trust and develop plans that reflect Yemen's dignity, freedom, and resilience—highlighting the sacrifices made by the people in defending their land, religion, and honor, as well as their support for the oppressed in Gaza. He called for a shift from traditional centralized planning, which relies heavily on external support, to self-reliant planning that mobilizes local resources and involves the private sector to ensure project success. The Deputy Prime Minister also mentioned the government's efforts to reduce agricultural imports by promoting local cultivation to achieve self-sufficiency, urging all stakeholders to take responsibility and implement workshop recommendations effectively. He announced that the districts of Bakil Al-Meer, Khiran Al-Mahraq, Abs, and Bani Qais were selected as model districts (out of 51) for implementing a new approach to integrated, participatory development planning in collaboration with local communities. Other districts will work on improving their plans for 1447 AH, with district directors being trained to ensure comprehensive participatory planning by 1448 AH. Al-Madani affirmed the government's commitment to supporting districts in value-chain projects and praised the local authority's role in development. Hajjah Governor Hilal Al-Sufi emphasized the importance of utilizing the workshop's outcomes to enhance participants' planning skills and ensure effective implementation while addressing shortcomings. He stressed that planning is the foundation for development across sectors and improving public services, noting that the province's leadership and operations room will closely monitor plan preparation and committee work. Dr. Abdulrahman Al-Malhani, head of the Planning Sector in the province, reviewed the directives and priorities of the 1447 AH plan, covering faith-based identity, economic development, community welfare, protection, education, public services, and health. He also explained the executive mechanism, procedural steps, models, and current situation analysis. The workshop included discussions on challenges faced by executive offices and solutions to overcome them. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print more of (Local)
