  • I'm Here Implementation—El Obour, Greater Cairo, Egypt
    I’m Here Implementation—El Obour, Greater Cairo, Egypt Process. Results. Response planning. Drafted by: Omar J. Robles | Sr. Program Officer | Women’s Refugee Commission With key inputs from: Rachael Corbishley | Emergency Program Officer | Save the Children Egypt Summary | Key Steps and Outputs In January 2015, Save the Children Egypt (SC Egypt), with support from the Women’s Refugee Commission (WRC), implemented the I’m Here Approach in El Obour, Egypt. The approach and complementary field tools are designed to help humanitarian actors identify, protect, serve and engage adolescent girls from the start of emergency operations or of program design for girls. SC Egypt is committed to ensuring that its soon-to-open child centered space (CCS) program in El Obour is responsive to adolescent girls. SC Egypt aims to make its child-centered services “accessible for girls and for excluded children …, tailoring activities to meet their specific needs and capacities.”1 Specifically in El Obour, SC Egypt has chosen to adopt a mobile CCS model, which extends programming from a “CCS hub into existing community spaces” such as schools, gardens and community centers.2 I’m Here implementation in El Obour was the first in an urban refugee setting. The process, results and response planning outlined in this report are designed to inform how SC Egypt can fulfill its expressed commitment to not overlook adolescent girls – to account for their context-specific profile, vulnerabilities and capacities. Key steps and outputs. With UNHCR-approved access to registration information for Syrian refugees who live in Greater Cairo, the WRC and SC Egypt modified the I’m Here Approach and tools to safely translate this unique access into actionable info for programmatic decision-making.

  • Encouraging Peaceful Co-Existence Through a Multi-Faceted Approach
    Encouraging Peaceful Co-Existence Through a Multi-Faceted Approach Implementing Agency: Plan International Egypt Partners: Syria Al Gad Relief Foundation in Greater Cairo and Islamic Charity Complex Association in Damietta Donor: European Commission- Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection Location: Damietta and Qalubia (Greater Cairo) Target Population: Syrian and Egyptian students ages 0 – 18 years Implementation Period: June 1, 2016 - May 31, 2018 Number of Beneficiaries: 3600 children and 60 adults 1200 children, 0 – 5 years 1900 children, 6 – 12 years 500 children, 13 – 18 years 60 teachers and school management Background The violence in Syria has seen over 2.2 million child refugees fleeing to other countries, and 6 million children in need of assistance, including 2.8 million displaced, inside Syria. UNHCR reports that circa 51,000 Syrian child refugees registered, 1,600 of them are separated, all in need of assistance. The initial findings of an on-going UNHCR-led survey show that between 20 and 30 percent of Syrian refugee children in Egypt are out of school, compared to 12 percent in 2014. Damietta and Qalubia are two of the governorates with high numbers of Syrian refugees and limited humanitarian support. In response, Plan International (Plan) set up an office in Damietta to help Syrian children to fulfill their right to education and integrate in host communities. Plan’s Qalubia sub-office has been supporting public schools to accept and cater for the needs of refugee children. In this action, Plan is working with the Ministry of Education to integrate 7,590 Syrian refugee children aged 0-18 years in six communities of the Damietta and Qalubia governorates, promoting a safe and socially inclusive environment and supporting their smooth integration in host communities.

ABSTRACT : The Railway Bridges in Egypt are designed at the past to perform properly under a definite loading scenario and environmental conditions. But the actual scenario to which a bridge is exposed is quite different than it is designed for. It is because there are lot of uncertainties in load coming over the structure and there is always a possibility for collapse of the structure under dynamic load. The static and dynamic test was carried out to study the performance of the Imbaba Railway Bridge over Nile River in Cairo governorate under ststic and dynamic test, also, extract modal parameter (mode shape, damping, and natural frequency).

The main objective of the Project is to contribute to the improvement of the country's wastewater treatment services in one of the major treatment plants in Cairo that has already exceeded its design capacity and to improve the sanitation service level in South of Cairo at Helwan area. The Project for the ‘Expansion and Upgrade of the Arab Abo Sa’ed (Helwan) Wastewater Treatment Plant’ in South Cairo will be implemented in line with the objective of the Egyptian Government to improve the sanitation conditions of Southern Cairo, de-pollute the Al Saff Irrigation Canal and improve the water quality in the canal to suit the agriculture purposes. This project has been identified as a top priority by the Government of Egypt (GoE). The Project will promote efficient and sustainable wastewater treatment in South Cairo and expand the reclaimed agriculture lands by upgrading Helwan Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) from secondary treatment of 550,000 m3/day to advanced treatment as well as expanding the total capacity of the plant to 800,000 m3/day (additional capacity of 250,000 m3/day).

  • 2.5.2 Characteristics of Specific Land Use Categories (1) Commercial
    THE STRATEGIC URBAN DEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN STUDY FOR A SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE GREATER CAIRO REGION IN THE ARAB REPUBLIC OF EGYPT Final Report (Volume 2) 2.5.2 Characteristics of Specific Land Use Categories (1) Commercial area Commercial areas in GCR can be classified into three basic types: (i) the CBD; (ii) the sub-center which includes the mixed use for commercial/business and residential use; and (iii) major shopping malls such the large size commercial facilities in relatively new urban areas. The CBD is located in downtown areas, where there are mixed-use buildings that were established long ago and partly accommodate shops and stores. The major sub-centers in the main agglomeration are Shobra, Abasia, Zamalek, Heliopolis, Nasr city, Maadi in Cairo governorate and Mohandeseen, Dokki, Giza in Giza governorate. The recent trend following the mid-1990’s can been seen in the construction of shopping malls which are commercial complexes comprising a movie theater, restaurants, retail shops, and sufficient parking space or a parking building attached. These suburban shopping malls are mainly located in Nasr city, Heliopolis city, Maadi, Shobra, and Giza. Source: JICA study team Figure 2.5.3 Location of Major Commercial Areas in main agglomeration (2) Industrial area The following map shows location of concentration of industrial areas in Study area. There are seven industrial areas in NUCs, five industrial areas under governorates, and two public free zones in the study area. The number of registered factories is 13,483 with a total area of 76,297 ha. Among those registered factories, 3 % of factories can be categorized as large-scale which have an investment cost of more than LE10 million, or more than 500 employees.
