Spatio- temporal Resilience mapping online tool for Egypt (ReMOTE)

2020

2021

جمهورية مصر العربية -مشروع قومي

The ReMOTE institutional link between the University of Salford (UK), the National Research Centre (Egypt), CEDARE and DCarbon, is to bridge the gap by developing an analytical mapping tool to analyse and map the population that are most vulnerable to climate change impacts in Egypt. The methodology used relies on categorising climate and socio-economic vulnerability data in three categories namely; exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity. An online spatial portal will be developed to overlay Geographic Information System to calculate the most vulnerable areas according to the identified IPCC criteria and definition. A mobile app will be developed to allow different stakeholders use the data, examine different scenarios and visualize the most vulnerable communities in Egypt. Results of this project provide a platform to enhance the science-policy interface to improve policy-making and planning towards better management of the negative impacts of climate change in Egypt and integrating climate change measures into national policies, strategies and national plans.

Egypt State of the Environment Report (SOER) 2017

2017

2020

CEDARE is assisting the EEAA in developing Egypt’s State of the Environment Report (SOER) for the year 2016. State of the Environment Reporting has been largely the responsibility of governments, through departments or ministries mandated to report to parliament, government or to provide information to the public. Traditional SOER provides information on the environment and trends. This information is very useful to analyse trends in key variables of the environment. To achieve this aim, the SOE report of Egypt will be developed in line with the latest global trends of environmental reporting to ensure credibility, legitimacy, significance and salience, and wide dissemination. The State of the Environment Report (SOER) of Egypt will reflect the national priorities of Egypt that include mitigation and adaptation to climate change according to the outputs of the Paris Agreement 2015. The implicated national priorities also include the decisions and declarations of the African countries whereby Egypt is now the president of the African Ministerial Conference on the Environment (AMCEN) for the next two years assisted by the AMCEN Support Unit at the Ministry of Environment. The SOER will also highlight emerging national priority issues of integrated waste management system through the adoption and endorsement of the circular economy.

جمهورية مصر العربية -مشروع قومي

CEDARE signed a protocol with the Egyptian National Research Centre during the Launch of the Centre of Excellence for Research and Applied Studies on Climate Change and Sustainable Development (C3SD-NRC). CEDARE is a founding member of the board of the C3SD-NRC and its Steering Committee, along with a distinguished group of national, regional, and international bodies working on addressing climate change as well as its environmental, social, and economic impacts. The C3SD-NRC will play a vital role in establishing research-based methodologies for addressing climate change and its impacts, and in developing sustainable solutions for vulnerable areas in Egypt and the region. It will also provide technical and scientific support to decision makers in the governmental and nongovernmental sectors to bridge the science-policy gap.

جمهورية مصر العربية -مشروع قومي

“Good Agricultural Practices on Geographic Indication for Sustainable Production and Increased Marketing Competence to Enhance Rural livelihood in Matrouh” is a 24 months project under the EU Joint Rural Development Programme and the Italian Development cooperation which aims to increase sustainability and marketing opportunities of agricultural products in Matrouh by adopting Good Agricultural Practices (GAPs) on Geographic Indication (GI) and improve livelihood of the rural communities. The focus area in Matrouh is an area of 320 by 60 km coastal zone between Foka and El Salloum with a rural population of roughly 120,000 inhabitants. The farmers experience losses of agricultural products and low marketing competence. The action will concentrate its activities on three main agricultural products of Matrouh, which are Figs, Olives for oil and black table grapes. The intervention is implemented in Matrouh and Barrani districts targeting 10,000 of the rural population. The timeline of the project is spread on 2 years where the 1st year is dedicated to capacity development on GAPs on GI, procurement process of equipment, data collection on GI registration and preparations for the drafting process code of practice.2nd year is dedicated to registration of GI, publication of code of practice, marketing of GI products using the purchased equipment for preparation and transportation. The action will concentrate its activities on three main agricultural products of Matrouh, which are Figs (Teen Sultani), Olives for oil (Zaitun Shemlaly), and Black table Grapes (Enab Eswed). The intervention is implemented in Matrouh and Barrani districts targeting 10,000 of the rural population

Upper Middle Egypt ecosystems are facing significant water resources degradation as irrigation system and waterways are polluted by solid and agricultural illegal dumping, a result of WM deficiencies, which considerably compromises already limited social and economic opportunities in target communities. Hence, SISAW PROJECT will employ innovative participatory SWM processes to enhance rural Fayoum and Minya populations wellbeing through sustainable territorial resources governance and socio-economic development opportunities
