DRC mainly works on developing local communities in the desert, assisting them by providing sustainable development means. The aim is to reach the development of these communities, improving their livelihood, enduring in their environment and maintaining their unique and diverse lifestyle, which mainly contributes in preserving the biodiversity of these areas.

The centre works on developing Bedouin communities through several projects, including rainwater harvesting, providing modern agricultural practices that contribute in overcoming agricultural development impediments in these areas. DRC also works in developing local handicrafts, especially for Bedouin women.
