Amongst other recommendations made in its closing statement,  the Forum recommended the following regarding Waqf:

The establishment of the WIEF-IDB International Working Group on Waqf  Development that acts as an information depository centre as well as a clearing house of information.

 

It is hoped that the above recommendation will be fully implemented and that the outcomes of such a working group will be tremendously beneficial to the local, regional, and global waqf sectors.

This recommendation, incidentally, is a priority recommendation and tops the list of recommendations. … Great news for the waqf sector. Awqaf SA  welcomes the recommendation and looks forward to working closely with the WIEF-IB International Working Group.
