It contains the relevant information and data on the SWM situation in Egypt and the major developments and changes in the period 2010/2011. The recent advances in the political and socio-economic situation are discussed. The current situation of ISWM is analysed and the challenges and constraints are highlighted. The progress in the industrial and hazardous waste management and medi- cal waste management are reviewed, in addition to the international financial and technical assistance programs. A needs assessment is proposed for capacity development until 2015. Moreover, the report includes ten selected relevant documents, and five case studies on good practices are presented. Several developments in the SWM sector took place within 2010/2011. One major develop- ment was the establishment of a new waste management entity under the umbrella of the Ministry of Local Development. The institutional arrangement of that entity and its roles and responsibilities were determined through the National Solid Waste Management Program (NSWMP) project. Moreover, an Integrated Strategy on Hazardous Substance and Waste Management (ISHSWM) was There is an emerging developed by the twinning project. In addition, a strategy on Private Sector need for building an Participation (PSP) in SWM, a strategy for the safe disposal of hazardous Egyptian national network, medical waste and a SWM strategy for Khosoos City in Qalyubia Gover- as a part of SWEEP-Net, to norate were prepared.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 Socio-economic and Political Situation The 2011 Uprising in Egypt is a build-up of social and economic factors that led to growing frustration and discontent within the country.1 Delayed government responses to population growth, food prices, and financial and unemployment concerns, as well as the stagnant overall governmental process and corrup- tion, all contributed to growing frustration amongst the Egyptian population.2 Egypt is undergoing a historic political transition after a popular revolution which began on January 25, 2011, and led to the overthrow of the Egyptian president. The Supreme Council of the Armed Forces has taken temporary control of the country to ensure a smooth transition to democracy. Many experts argue that Egypt’s transition may take years if not decades.3 However, others argue that change may take time, but democracy will create the necessary foundation for growth. Until recent political events, the Egyptian economy showed strong signs of recovery from the global reces- sion, during which Egypt’s GDP advanced 4.7% against an increase of 1.9% for all developing countries.4 Consumer spending and increasing activity in construction, tourism and communications were driving forces for growth, which moved up to 5.2% in 2010. Egypt is facing a more prolonged period of political uncertainty with signs emerging during early 2011 of disruptions to production, widening trade deficits, falling tourism and weaker worker remittances; FDI flows are likely to decline substantially. Unemploy- ment reached 11.9% during the first quarter of 2011, and may increase further as a result of disruptions to activity, but also as overseas workers had returned from Libya. Hence, GDP growth is anticipated to drop sharply to less than 1% in 2011. The political instability will delay the implementation of planned economic reforms and liberalization.5 The interim government has recognized the need for further reform but says that it does not have the mandate to implement it. The budget for fiscal year 2011/12 (June-July) includes significantly larger allocations to subsidies and higher government investment

    Forced Out of the Walls: The Effects of Egypt’s Civil Uprising on the Kasr Dobara Evangelical Church (A Case Study) by Sameh Hanna A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Knox College and the Toronto School of Theology In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Ministry awarded by Knox College and the University of Toronto © Copyright by Sameh Hanna 2018 Forced Out of the Walls: The Effects of Egypt’s Civil Uprising on the Kasr Dobara Evanglical Church (A Case Study) Sameh Hanna Doctor of Ministry Knox College and the University of Toronto 2018 Abstract The Kasr Dobara Evangelical Church is situated one block away from Cairo‘s Tahrir Square, the primary location for the vast majority of the historical events of the January 25, 2011 revolution. Cairo‘s Tahrir Square and the Kasr Dobara Evangelical Church (KDEC) continued to be the principle focal points up to and including the June 30 uprising some three years later. During this period of massive change in the history of Egypt, the Coptic church realized the need for political action in the face of persecution, and Kasr Dobara Evangelical Church was a focal example of leadership and service in this new Christian activism. For the first time in the history of Christianity in Egypt, Christians ventured out of the sanctuary of their churches to protest against the traditional oppression of government. The theological understanding and leadership provided by the pastors, leaders, and members of KDEC encouraged significant change, including a new rapprochement between

Elewa' and Kunihiro Ishizaki" Abstract The present study of ostracode faunas from the Eoeene rocks exposed along the El Sheikh Fadl:Ras Gharib streteh in eastern Egypt has resulted in, as shown below, the establishment of biozones and the de]ineation of the distribution of paleoenvironments which prevailed during this period of time. Forty-two ostracode speeies have been dis- criminated in samples collected from 11 sections in the study area. Of these samples 43 which yielded 100 or more ostracode specimens have been grouped under five biotopes as the result of cluster analysis. These biotopes are roek bodies characterized by particular ostracode faunas, and thus provide kernels of three assemblage-and one acme-zones of the middle Eocene, and one assemblage-zone of the lower Eoeene. In consequenee, gener- al paleoenvironments prevailing in the study area during Eocene time can be presumed by stratigraphie and geographie distributions of these biozones.

  • Annaulreport MISR BANK 2004-2005.Pdf
    Mr. Mohamed Kamal El Din Barakat Chairman During the fiscal year 2004/2005, the Egyptian government undertook significant structural reforms to the financial and monetary policies that led to an increase in the GDP (gross domestic product) growth rate to 5.1% compared to 4.2% in the previous year as well as a reduction of the inflation rate to 4.7%. Furthermore, the foreign exchange markets witnessed stability and the monetary reserves of foreign currencies increased to more than $20 Billion. This improvement was reflected upon all market sectors including banking. Consequently, it impacted Banque Misr's financial achievements for this year where total assets had grown by 17.3% to reach L.E 106.8 billion. As for the deposits, they grew by 16.3% to reach L.E 93.2 Billion and the shareholders' equity increased by 2.6% to reach L.E 3.5 Billion. Concerning loans, the total loans portfolio grew by 3.8% to reach L.E 37.8 billion. Furthermore, the bank continued its support for small and micro finance projects by offering credit facilities engaging higher employment rates for economy support. The financial investments increased by 26% to reach L.E. 39.1 Billion. In this context, the Bank's newly introduced investment fund with daily current revenue (day by day account) was highly accepted by the customers. This was reflected by the increase of its net value from L.E. 200 Million on its issuance date during August 2004 to reach more than L.E. 2 Billion by the end of July 2005, the total profits before provisions and taxes increased by 74.3% to reach L.E.

    2 THE NATIONAL MATERNAL MORTALITY STUDY: EGYPT 2000 REPORT OF FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS JUNE 2001 3 © June 2001 Directorate of Maternal and Child Health Care Ministry of Health and Population, Egypt 4 The National Maternal Mortality Study: Egypt 2000 was conducted by the Directorate of Maternal and Child Health Care, Ministry of Health and Population, under the Healthy Mother/Healthy Child Project in collaboration with the United States Agency for International Development and its technical assistance contractor, John Snow, Inc. This publication was made possible through support provided by the Office of Health and Population, United States Agency for International Development/Egypt, under the terms of Contract No. 263-C-00-98-00041- 00 with John Snow, Inc. (JSI). The opinions expressed herein are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the United States Agency for International Development or John Snow, Inc. Foreword The National Maternal Mortality Study: Egypt, 2000 is the second national study of maternal mortality to take place in Egypt. I requested that this study be repeated to measure the degree of reduction in maternal mortality since the first study (1992/93), which was conducted eight years ago. Both studies were conducted by the Ministry of Health and Population, Directorate of Maternal and Child Health Care with help from the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics (CAPMAS). Support to fund this study was provided by the Ministry of Health and Population and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), with technical support provided by USAID contractor John Snow, Inc. It is with great pleasure that I congratulate all of my MOHP colleagues on their accomplishments and contributions to lowering the national maternal mortality ratio by over 50% (from 174 to 84 per 100,000 live births) in the past eight years.

When you think of ‘Brazil’ and ‘Paraguay’– what comes to mind? Maybe Cristo Redentor; the ‘Big Jesus’? Copacabana beach? Samba? Soccer? Perhaps car- jackings? What often does not come to mind is the poverty faced by many Brazilians and Paraguayans every day. Brazil has one of the world’s highest disparities between its rich and poor, with many of its citizens living in poverty; while over 60% of Paraguayans live in poverty. The Coptic Orthodox Church has established churches in both these countries in order to bring the message of Orthodoxy to its people and assist those who are living in poverty. The church has established programs that serve those in poverty in South America, including organised trips through the Mission Life Centre and through church members in America, Canada and Australia. This year, 16 of us had the privilege of serving alongside His Grace Bishop Aghathon in Collage by Jessica Hennien the shanty towns (Slums) of Brazil and Paraguay. substandard conditions, many cannot afford to pay The service included bringing clothes, food, and the However, the church itself has limited resources.
