The institutional cooperation, civil society and heritage sector maintains regular ties not only with French NGOs working in Egypt, but also Egyptian NGOs acting on various topics (equality, women’s rights, the environment, professional training, youth employability…).
This sector supports civil society by awarding grants to Egyptian associations and NGOs that enable them to implement innovative projects on themes such as the youth, social innovation, and current issues like COVID-19 or COP27. It also contributes to the organization of study visits in France for young project leaders doing social, environmental and cultural impact work, allowing them to discover French institutions.
This sector pays particular attention to the issue of gender by integrating it throughout all its actions (event organizing on the occasion of International Women’s Rights Day, the representation of women in the IFE’s grant selection panels, encouraging female candidatures…).
