Carbon Footprint & Transportation CARBON FOOTPRINT & TRANSPORTATION Report for Office of Sustainability Office of Strategy Management & Spring 2019 The American University in Cairo Institutional Effectiveness INTRODUCTION To complement the work of The Office of Sustainability on its biennial publication of AUC’s carbon footprint, this poll was designed to capture transportation trends and carpooling interest within the community. METHODOLOGY This poll was designed and conducted by the Office of Strategy Management and Institutional Effectiveness in collaboration with the Office of Sustainability. Invitations were sent on March 26, 2019, and remained open for one week. One reminder was sent on the 2nd of April before close date on the 3rd yielding a total response rate of 6%. Findings from this achieved sample size can be applicable to the total intended population with a ±5% margin of error at a 95% confidence level.. Responses for the carpooling section, however, are too low and cannot be applied to the population.

On the other hand, a more significant percentage of students arrive from Heliopolis and Nasr City.

  • New Neighborhood Power
    REPORT WORLD New Neighborhood Power Informal Popular Committees and Changing Local Governance in Egypt FEBRUARY 7, 2017 — CILJA HARDERS AND DINA WAHBA PAGE 1 After the uprising of 2011, new forms of political participation emerged, among them the popular committees (lijan sha’abiyah). Initially convened mainly to ensure security at the neighborhood level, the committees came to life after the withdrawal of police forces from the public in Cairo, Alexandria, Suez, Port Said, and many towns of the Nile Delta. After the initial eighteen days of the Egyptian revolution, the popular committees expanded their activities and, in different ways in different places, became vehicles to advocate for local needs through informal and formal channels. To a limited degree, the committees gave voice to groups and individuals that had been marginalized. Drawing on original fieldwork in several neighborhoods of Cairo and Giza, the authors argue that the committees embody a new form of political participation in Egypt, which has endured despite the country’s sharp return to authoritarianism. Although the committee are varied and imperfectly democratic, they are a dividend of the revolution that will continue to be relevant in Egypt’s political future. In the night of January 28, 2011, as police forces retreated from the public after massive attacks on police stations all over Egypt, an unprecedented form of local political organization was born.1 Residents in both poor and rich areas of Cairo and other cities drew on their neighborhood networks to form so-called “popular committees.” The groups’ first and foremost aim was safeguarding their lives and assets under circumstances of extreme uncertainty and the threat of repression.

  • Resistant Escherichia Coli: a Risk to Public Health and Food Safety
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Poultry hatcheries as potential reservoirs for antimicrobial- resistant Escherichia coli: A risk to Received: 12 September 2017 Accepted: 21 March 2018 public health and food safety Published: xx xx xxxx Kamelia M. Osman1, Anthony D. Kappell2, Mohamed Elhadidy3,4, Fatma ElMougy5, Wafaa A. Abd El-Ghany6, Ahmed Orabi1, Aymen S. Mubarak7, Turki M. Dawoud7, Hassan A. Hemeg8, Ihab M. I. Moussa7, Ashgan M. Hessain9 & Hend M. Y. Yousef10 Hatcheries have the power to spread antimicrobial resistant (AMR) pathogens through the poultry value chain because of their central position in the poultry production chain. Currently, no information is available about the presence of AMR Escherichia coli strains and the antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) they harbor within hatchezries. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the possible involvement of hatcheries in harboring hemolytic AMR E. coli. Serotyping of the 65 isolated hemolytic E. coli revealed 15 serotypes with the ability to produce moderate bioflms, and shared susceptibility to cephradine and fosfomycin and resistance to spectinomycin. The most common β-lactam resistance gene was blaTEM, followed by blaOXA-1, blaMOX-like, blaCIT-like, blaSHV and blaFOX. Hierarchical clustering of E. coli isolates based on their phenotypic and genotypic profles revealed separation of the majority of isolates from hatchlings and the hatchery environments, suggesting that hatchling and environmental isolates may have diferent origins. The high frequency of β-lactam resistance genes in AMR E. coli from chick hatchlings indicates that hatcheries may be a reservoir of AMR E. coli and can be a major contributor to the increased environmental burden of ARGs posing an eminent threat to poultry and human health.
