House of Representatives approves agreement on Sustainable Transformation for Agricultural Resilience in Upper Egypt (Egypt Today)
Egypt Today published an article discussing the Agreement on Financing the Sustainable Transformation for Agricultural Resilience in Upper Egypt (STAR) between Egypt and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) that was signed in Rome on 28/1/2022 and in Cairo on 9/2/2022, and approved by Egypt’s House of Representatives on May 8. In an interview with IFAD Country Program Manager for Egypt Mohamed Elghazaly in February 2021, he said that the COVID-19 had its negative impacts on IFAD’s operations in Egypt, but the impact was minimal since they “had a business continuity plan that was developed before the outbreak of cases in Egypt.” The study of the COVID-19 impact on IFAD’s ongoing projects in Egypt was conducted in cooperation with the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), IFPRI, UNIDO, and the World Food Programme.
