  • SEKEM Initiative (1977)
    FACTSHEET Egypt – SEKEM Initiative (1977) IN BRIEF The SEKEM Initiative uses biodynamic agricultural methods to revitalize desert land and develop agricultural business in Egypt. The SEKEM mission entails a holistic approach focusing on agricultural production on farms, sustainable ecological ma- nagement, and enabling knowledge transfer, education and conscious consumption. Approximately 684 hectares of desert land have been reclaimed, of which 100% is operated by biodynamic agriculture methods; 477 farmers have been trained on bio- dynamic agriculture methods and registered under the Egyptian Biodynamic Associa- tion (EBDA). Today SEKEM is a leading social business worldwide overarching a group of companies and NGOs. The practice is transferable and since 2007, SEKEM has been working to create three new farms, with all infrastructure for sustainable development as in Belbeis. ABOUT THE PRACTICE AT A GLANCE Organisation: SEKEM Group (Company) Implemented in: Belbeis, Sharkeya (Egypt) Year: 1977 Beneficiaries: EKEM employees, small farmers working under the supervision of SEKEM, people living in surrounding villages benefiting from SEKEM schools, medical center, and vocational training center Topic(s): Production, processing, distribution, consumption, organic PROBLEMS TARGETED / CONTEXT The SEKEM Initiative was founded to realize the vision of sustainable human develop- ment and to tackle poverty, unemployment, food security, water and energy challen- ges, and gender inequality in Egypt. In Egypt agriculture involves 40% of the workforce and remains the least developed sector of the Egyptian economy. Cost of agricultural convened by EGYPT: SEKEM Initiative (1977) production has increased while the resource base has shrunk. Today, Egypt has become one of the world’s largest importers of food. Farmers in Egypt face a plethora of prob- lems, such as water-scarcity, over-reliance on chemical inputs and low productivity.

Since then, much has changed. The government has gradually reduced subsidies on fossil fuels. But social prob- lems have grown in tandem in many places, not just Cairo. Many people such as Cairo’s taxi drivers depend on the fuel for more than just a comfortable journey from A to B. SEKEM has been trying to reduce its companies’ dependence on fossil fuels and to increase the share of renewable energies it consumes as well as produces for a long time. At the same time we want to set an example of how things might work differently in a “greener” world.

  • Helmy Abouleish – CEO SEKEM Group About Helmy Born 1961 in Austria, Helmy Abouleish Moved to Egypt with His Family When He Was 16 Years Old
    Helmy Abouleish Version 01-17 Helmy Abouleish – CEO SEKEM Group About Helmy Born 1961 in Austria, Helmy Abouleish moved to Egypt with his family when he was 16 years old. The son of Dr. Ibrahim Abouleish studied at the Faculty of Commerce of Cairo University Business Administration and owns a Marketing Diploma of American University in Cairo. He was deeply involved in the development of SEKEM and engaged in the national and international politic sphere fostering responsible competitiveness, social entrepreneurship and the abatement of the huge problems of the 21st century, such as climate change and food security. Helmy Abouleish is currently the CEO of the SEKEM Group of Companies. What are the main benefits of Sustainable and Biodynamic agriculture in Egypt? 3 Questions Problems like food insecurity, water scarcity, climate change etc., pose enormous challenges for to Helmy Egypt that cannot be solved by politics alone. SEKEM stands up to these challenges by embracing a private-economic and civilian approach. Biodynamic agricultural methods enhance climate change adaptation of the plants and the farm as a whole, while they also substantially promote to mitigate climate change through an increased soil carbon sequestration rate. The sponge structure of the compost increases the waterholding capacity, which in turn decreases water consumption by up to 40% compared to conventional agriculture. Besides, food security is promoted through the provision of healthy foodstuffs. The lack of chemicals and the premium of Organic produce added to the regular market-price increase the income for farmers, provide them a healthy environment and most important, ensure that their soil is built up and stays fertile in the long run instead of short term profits and leaching out the soils.

By that we do not primarily mean the membership numbers which have remained largely steady in recent years – with the exception of countries outside Europe – but rather the char- acter of the Society. It is the human diversity, the spiritual yearnings and abil- ities of the members which have grown in dimension. It is because everyone who is active in the Anthroposophical Society today contributes their expe- rience and opportunities from varied cultural perspectives and different parts of the world to the Anthroposophical Society so that the life and way of work- ing within the Society is becoming more open and diverse.

  • The Case Against Malcolm Brinded CBE - February 2015
    The Case against Malcolm Brinded CBE - February 2015 The Case against Malcolm Brinded CBE Beyond reasonable doubt Introduction In Scotland, existing health and safety offences and gross negligence manslaughter apply to individuals, and following the changes to corporate manslaughter law prosecutions against corporations will continue to be taken where there is sufficient evidence and it is in the public interest to do so. The difficulty in securing the prosecution of individuals, gross negligence manslaughter, particularly a Director, is the challenge to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt. A defense for Directors would be that they were not aware, were not directly involved in the felony and to prove otherwise in large corporations must be difficult. The Scottish Affairs Committee discussed what they considered a low level of prosecutions in this arena with the Lord Advocate Frank Mulholland. Lindsay Roy my MP is or was a member of that committee and is copied on this note. Mulholland's position was that it was not easy to bring prosecutions, such a prosecution if it was to be successful needed to be proved beyond reasonable doubt unlike civil or other prosecutions where the bar is set lower on the balance of probabilities. That burden of proof is taken away from Crown officials in the case of Brinded because the Royal Dutch Shell (RDS) investigation in 2004/5 into his conduct in 1999 was conclusive. In 2005 at the corporate headquarters in The Hague, a meeting was held to hear the outcome of the investigation. Present were the CEO of the new Company, Jeroen van de Veer, his Legal Counsel Beat Hess, the Investigation team Jakob Stausholm and Richard Sykes, and the author who had instigated and participated in giving evidence to the investigation.

SEKEM Holding Head Office: 3 Cairo Belbes Desert Road, El Salam, Egypt Tel.: (+20) 2 265 88 124/5 Mail: [email protected] P.O.Box 2834 El Horreya, 11361 Cairo, Egypt Fax: (+20) 2 265 88 123 Web: www.sekem.com “Concerning all acts of initiative and creation, there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits one- self, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never other- wise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way. I have learned a deep respect for one of Goethe’s couplets: Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it!” William Hutchinson Murray SEKEM Vision and Mission 2057 40 Years of Sustainable Development SEKEM1 Addressing Societal Challenges Egypt is facing many challenges: in regards to climate change, food insecurity, water scarcity, desertification, unemployment, migration, education and many more.
