CARE Egypt's work is guided by its Program Goal that calls for An Empowered Civil Society that actively interacts with the private sector, and government to realize economic and social rights. To this end, CARE Egypt partners with different players in order to bring an end to poverty.

Partnership with NGOs

To enhance local support for community-led initiatives over the long-term, CARE Egypt works to build the capacity of Egyptian community-based organizations. CARE’s approach is to partner with community development associations (CDAs) and other civil society organizations at the field level.  CARE and its partners are then better positioned to make informed decisions about how certain interventions should be carried in the community. CARE also provides capacity building and institutional strengthening initiatives to selected CDAs to enable them to continue their work after CARE's projects ends.

Partnership with the Private Sector

During the last few years CARE came to realize the important role that the private sector can and should play to promote development in Egypt. CARE Egypt partners with a number of private sector companies to help realize specific goals.

Partnership with Government

CARE's work in Egypt is within the framework of a Basic Agreement between the Government of Egypt and CARE signed on June 17, 1976. CARE has a well-established working relationship with the Egyptian Ministry of Insurance and Social Affairs (MISA).  

In recognition of CARE's work in the field of social development, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Ministry, has been signed and allows CARE to continue to operate in seven governorates of Upper and Middle Egypt. CARE continues to receive the endorsement of governors of each Governorate to continue and/or expand operations.
