The week saw three policy-driven developments: the adoption of a 2025-2029 cybersecurity strategy for vocational training, a cabinet-level call for regional collaboration on irrigation shortages, and constitutional amendments reinforcing Berber language recognition and presidential term limits. At the same time, drought conditions worsened cereal import projections, while litigation on Kabylie-related retrials opened in Algiers. Sahel security and the Western Sahara file remained active on Algeria’s foreign policy agenda, and cultural sectors reported modest public-sector exhibitions and festival performances.
