Irbid industry chief, Danish team discuss business, clean energy, water

IRBID — Irbid Chamber of Industry President Hani Abu Hassan and a delegation representing the Viborg Municipality of Denmark and the Danish Refugee Council discussed on Tuesday issues related to solid waste, business development, clean energy and water.

Abu Hassan briefed the delegates on the nature of industry in the city and its different industrial products that reach different parts of the world. Council delegates reviewed the humanitarian services offered by the council, which was established in 2003 after the Iraqi crisis, and its role in the Syrian crisis.

They added that most of the council's works focus on in-kind assistance to refugees and host countries. The meeting also addressed the contributions the Viborg Municipality could offer in the health, cultural and industrial sectors, especially that local governance in Denmark enjoys decentralisation, whereby industry and trade issues are within the mayor's authorities.
