    Arab Conference on Astronomy and Geophysics the 5th Assembly (ACAG-5) By: Sultana N. Nahar, The Ohio State University The international Arab Conference on Astronomy and Geophysics (ACAG) has been held every two years since its initiation in 2008 by the Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research of Egypt and the General Secretary of the League of Arab States. The objectives are to hold ACAG in all Arab states and strengthen the collaborations among the Arab countries. However, any non-Arabic country is welcome to join. I attended the 5th Assembly held at the National Research Institute of The author of this article, Sultana N. Astronomy and Geophysics (NRIAG) in Helwan, Egypt during Nahar, the first woman Guest of Honor at October 17 - 20, 2016. It was my honor to be invited as the first female ACAG-5. Guest of Honor at ACAG along with two Emirs from the United Arab Emirates. As told, I might be the first female guest of honor at any other Arab conferences. NRIAG in Egypt has been the main host for ACAGs, but the plan is now to move to other Arab countries. Egypt is the most attractive place for students and researchers of North African and Middle-Eastern countries for education and research. Founded in 1839 in Boulac, NRIAG (previously the Helwan observatory) is the oldest observatory in North Africa. It moved to Abbassia and then to Helwan in 1903 where it is currently located. It runs 11 labs all over Egypt with space and solar, seismology, geomagnetism, geoelectric, and geodynamics research labs.
