Mr. Brian Hayes, member of the European Parliament and VITA, an Irish NGO which is currently active in Eritrea, jointly hosted the conference that was held under the theme: “Eritrea-Opportunity for Development Innovation”.
In a statement he made at the opening ceremony, Mr. Hayes said that the conference that is the first of its kind is aimed at correcting the negative image that Eritrea has been portrayed by some media outlets and to reflect the practical and realistic observations about Eritrea by those who visited and worked in Eritrea.
Mr. Hayes also shared his impression and experience of his visit to Eritrea and expressed his strong conviction that positive outcomes could be achieved through constructive engagement and cooperation with the country.
