Egyptian Pioneer Activity

The purpose of the USAID Egyptian Pioneers Activity is to build a more inclusive and capable workforce that elevates sectors critical to Egypt's economic growth.

The activity will achieve this purpose through the following three results: 1) goe ministries and other government institutions at the forefront of Egypts strategic development have greater leadership and technical capacity to develop and implement policies and practices to advance national priorities; 2) emerging leaders in non-goe entities modernize their knowledge, skills, and practice in priority sectors to tackle Egypts evolving public and private sector challenges and advance Egypts regional and international competitiveness; and 3) young Egyptians of high financial need gain market-relevant knowledge and skills in fields that situate them to effectively fuel Egypts long-term inclusive economic growth.

USAID Egyptian Pioneers implementation, particularly in terms of targeted sectors and degree programs, will be guided by usg and government of Egypt (goe) priorities, with a special emphasis on sectors that directly contribute to Egypts public health and climate change goals.
