2013 revealed the hypothesis that there are at least four major societal issues hindering successful transformation in Egypt: inadequate knowledge transfer, miscommunication, lack of institutionalization, and poor leadership.<\/p>\n<p>Through a specific survey approach aimed at identifying and screening organizations and groups in the Delta and Upper Egypt, groups and organizations were identified that have managed to overcome, or at least have the potential to overcome, these societal challenges. The study focused on: 1) understanding the causes of their success and determining how this success can be replicated elsewhere in Egypt, and 2) creating a network among these successful groups to foster closer connections and exchange between their successful models.<\/p>\n<p>As part of this project, a team of local researchers conducted around 40 interviews with local initiatives and NGOs, from which 21 were selected to participate in a workshop. The aim of this workshop was to establish a network among the groups to share their best practices and knowledge, and to explore whether and how the approaches could be replicated in other parts of Egypt.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-2 fusion-flex-container nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1248px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-3 fusion_builder_column_4_5 4_5 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:80%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:2.4%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:2.4%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-4 fusion_builder_column_1_5 1_5 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:20%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:9.6%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:9.6%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div style=\"text-align:center;\"><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat button-medium button-custom fusion-button-default button-1 fusion-button-default-span fusion-has-button-gradient\" style=\"--button_accent_color:#ffffff;--button_accent_hover_color:#ffffff;--button_border_hover_color:#ffffff;--button_gradient_top_color:rgba(230,124,72,0.32);--button_gradient_bottom_color:#e67c48;--button_gradient_top_color_hover:#e67c48;--button_gradient_bottom_color_hover:#e67c48;\" target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/transform-center.org\/en\/our-projects\/\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text awb-button__text awb-button__text--default\">Back to the project overview<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":412,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[],"portfolio_skills":[],"portfolio_tags":[],"class_list":["post-470","avada_portfolio","type-avada_portfolio","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.1 -
