Jens Stoltenberg, Prime Minister of Norway “This is an example of the need for new and environmental friendly technologies to contribute to both increase the global production of food, but at the same time reduce the global emissions of greenhouse gasses.”
Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani, Prime Minister of Qatar “I think this will not be important only to Qatar, but to the whole region and elsewhere where they have the same climate as Qatar. So, I have a lot of hope.”
Andris Piebalgs, EU Energy Commissioner “The Sahara Forest Project appears to be a very interesting example of the more integrated and holistic kind of thinking that we will need a lot more of in the future to make our energy, water and industrial systems more sustainable.”
ENDORSEMENTS
Olav Kjørven, Assistant Secretary-General of UNDP “This is a gold standard in a day and age where we have a hot and crowded planet, and we need to move towards a low-carbon future fast.”

FAO
Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations: “This case study (The Sahara Forest Project) illustrates how an integrated food production facility grows high-quality and diverse food productions in desert areas, minimizing energy and freshwater needs” “The results of the nexus rapid appraisal show that this intervention performs very well in the Qatar context” “The intervention has an outstanding performance regarding water (water is transformed into food very efficiently and the amount of freshwater used is low) and employment aspects (few people are needed to produce the energy needed and the vegetables); and water is particularly under stress in the context of Qatar”.
