قصة نجاح جديدة: نموذجًا ناجحًا للتكامل بين البحث العلمي والتطبيق العملي لخدمة التنمية المستدامة
يُعدّ د. محمد رمضان زقزوق نموذجًا مميزًا للباحث العربي الطموح، الذي يوظف الذكاء الاصطناعي وصور الأقمار الصناعية لخدمة البيئة البحرية ومراقبة التلوث النفطي.
من خلال أبحاثه ومشاركته في مشروعات دولية مثل NAFCOAST وGMES & Africa، ساهم في تطوير نظم متقدمة لحماية السواحل والبيئة البحرية وتعزيز الاستدامة.
وقد كان لـ مركز البيئة والتنمية للإقليم العربي وأوروبا (سيداري) والهيئة القومية للاستشعار عن بعد وعلوم الفضاء دور بارز في تسريع إنجاز الدكتوراه الخاصة به، ودعم تطوير نظام متكامل لحماية البيئة البحرية من مخاطر التلوث النفطي، مما يمثل نموذجًا ناجحًا للتكامل بين البحث العلمي والتطبيق العملي لخدمة التنمية المستدامة.

A New Success Story: A Model of Effective Integration Between Scientific Research and Practical Application for Sustainable Development
Dr. Mohamed Ramadan Zezoq represents an inspiring model of an ambitious Arab researcher who uses artificial intelligence and satellite imagery to monitor marine oil pollution and protect the coastal environment.
Through his participation in international projects such as NAFCOAST and GMES & Africa, he contributed to developing advanced systems for coastal protection and environmental sustainability.
Both the Centre for Environment and Development for the Arab Region and Europe (CEDARE) and the National Authority for Remote Sensing and Space Sciences (NARSS) played a significant role in accelerating the completion of his PhD and supporting the development of an integrated system to protect marine environments from oil pollution, exemplifying the power of collaboration between scientific research and practical application for sustainable development.

On April 15, 2025, in Cairo, Egypt, CEDARE and DRC organized a Stakeholder Workshop for the Marcnowa - GMES&Africa projects. This gathering brought together a diverse group of visionaries, including representatives from Libya's Remote Sensing Center, various Egyptian Ministries (Environment, Water Resources, Agriculture), leading research institutions, universities, and dynamic private sector entities.
🔍 This workshop underscores the transformative power of Earth Observation data in enhancing decision-making and policy formulation for sustainable water, natural resource, and coastal management across North & West Africa..

I had the honor of participating as a guest speaker at the GEO-CRADLE session during the EuroGEO Workshop held from October 8-10, 2024 in Krakow, Poland.✨🌍🔍
Thanks to GEO-CRADLE and everyone involved for making this event a success! 🎉

Two oil leaks threatening marine environment near Misrata and Benghazi detected by one of the MarCNoWA service (set up by the GMES and Africa consortium), and reported by the 'Libya Observer' - lyo.ly/5lpg 🛢️
The press plays a vital role in disseminating crucial information from GMES and Africa services, as well as similar programs. Let’s stay informed and take action together! 🌍📢

Two oil leaks threatening marine environment near Misrata and Benghazi The Libyan Center for Remote Sensing and Space Sciences has announced the recording of new marine pollution in Libyan territorial waters, due to an oil spill from a ship on August 16 off the coast of the city of Misrata, with an area estimated at 25 square kilometers. This is the second leak in just...
