Nawari described the award as unexpected, noting that 2025 was meant to be a preparatory year.

He credited the board, management and the planning and monitoring evaluation unit led by Manager Patrick Morel.

He also thanked Bob, Director of the Productivity Centre, and the FBEA team for their guidance.
