    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.

    Hydroclimate Changes to Arid regions subjected to Impact of climate change, human activities, and Large-scale climate patterns by Shereif Hassan Mahmoud A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Water Resources Engineering Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering University of Alberta © Shereif Hassan Mahmoud, 2020 Abstract In recent years, many regions worldwide have suffered from natural hazards related to the impact of human activities and climate change, such as floods and droughts, sea level rise, extreme weather events and an accelerated hydrological cycle. In Africa, the driest continent on Earth, climate change has led to more frequent occurrences of droughts of greater severity. Beside climate change, human activities have also incurred negative environmental impact which in turn has likely affected the climate at a wide range of temporal-spatial scales worldwide. For example, in the Middle East, floods of greater magnitude have been occurring more frequently in recent decades, which could be attributed partly to rapid urbanization or the effect of climate change, or both. In the Nile River basin (NRB), recurring droughts and increasing population have led to rising tension between competing users for water. Therefore, to develop more effective mitigation strategies against the potential impact of climate change, there is an urgent need to better understand changes to the hydrologic cycle of arid regions and linkage to regional climate change. The objectives of this dissertation are: 1) To investigate the potential implications of urbanization and climate change to the flood risk of Egypt and Saudi Arabia of arid climate in the Middle East.

The Company’s sales for the period recorded EGP 1.46bn, posting a growth of 39% y-o-y (compared to the same period last year). Total volume sold in 9M17 reached 70 thousand tons, a 6% y-o-y decline mainly driven by decreasing consumer purchasing power, while average price per kilogram increased by 47% y-o-y to reach EGP 21 during 9M17.
