Message from CARE

CARE International fully supports women’s rights and the dignity of women in Egypt. Given the critical role women play in all aspects of Egyptian society, it is imperative that their worth and status be acknowledged and strengthened in the new Egypt. CARE is a member of and stands with the Egypt Network for Women’s Rights Organizations (NWRO) in its efforts to promote women’s empowerment in Egypt. CARE calls upon the government of Egypt, political parties and communities to work together to create an Egypt that that respects and upholds the rights of women in Egypt to realize their full potential and participate in shaping the future of the country.

About CARE International in Egypt



CARE Egypt is an international non-profit, non-sectarian development NGO that works with the most marginalized communities in Egypt as part of CARE International. CARE began work in Egypt in 1954 with a nationwide school-feeding program. The project was closed by the 1967 war, but CARE returned to Egypt in 1974, and for several years created and managed a diverse set of development projects.

These activities provided material and equipment support services to fishing communities in the Aswan High Dam Lake areas, water supply and agriculture development in North Sinai, food assistance to Bedouin families in Sinai, and food incentives to encourage attendance at family planning centers in six governorates. Since 1986, CARE Egypt has expanded its activities to comprise a wide range of projects in more diversified areas, and has shifted away from direct service delivery towards more sustainable methods aimed at building the capacities of people and local institutions to solve their own problems.
