Our strong cooperation with the Egyptian government on various projects has led to significant achievements, positively impacting the lives of Egyptians in urban areas. We thank all our partners for their dedication to enhancing the environmental, infrastructure and social framework for Egyptian citizens in a way that respects and protects nature while ensuring that no person or place is left unattended. Let us continue our work together to build cities that prioritize quality and quality of life for all residents.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Urban development is traditionally a major topic of German development cooperation and the focus of the comprehensive development strategy \u201cBMZ 2030\u201d of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development. The projects \u201cEqual Opportunities and Social Development\u201d and \u201cCapacity Building through Urban Infrastructure Development\u201d are examples of long-standing successful German-Egyptian cooperation in this field. Germany&#8217;s sustainable and equitable urban development puts the needs of local residents at the center. Sustainable solutions can only be found through dialogue, cooperation and participation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ashraf AboArafe How can cities be made livable for all residents?
