DIHAD 2012
Earlier this month TIDES exhibited at DIHAD 
(The Dubai International Humanitarian Aid & Development Conference) in Dubai, UAE. TIDES engaged with representatives from diverse communities to discuss some of the most pressing challenges faced by humanitarian assistance and development domains in the Middle East and North Africa. 
Exhibitors saw the STAR-TIDES network as a new platform that can be leveraged to promote their capabilities and as a network for sharing ideas.
