Polish Scientists in Yemen [Archives:2001/07/Local News]

A group of four Polish scientists is visiting Yemen from the 1st to 12th of this month. Professors from Warsaw University came within the framework of the Cooperation Agreement between Universities in Sana’a and in Warsaw, signed in 1988. 
The Cooperation Agreement between the two Universities stipulates establishing mutual collaboration, exchange of staff and students, granting undergraduate and graduate scholarships, exchange of publications, organizing scientific research seminars, conferences etc. Based on the above-mentioned agreement, four Polish scientists (a geographer, an anthropologist, an economist and a historian) have prepared a very interesting research project called “Transformation of Rural Space Under Modernization Processes- A Case of Yemen”. Together with their colleagues from Sana’a University they spent nearly one week in Saada province, analyzing the structure of land cultivation, ways and means of agriculture production, agrarian and settlement structures.
