and in the future to adapt coastal areas to climate changes, starting in the areas most vulnerable to impact, and then expanding their scope within the framework of an integrated process for managing coastal areas in a way that ensures reducing negative impacts on economic activities and coastal communities
It is to enhance the resilience of local communities
in the northern coast and the Nile Delta in Egypt through integrated coastal management and to expand the use of soft engineering solutions and adaptation measures based on striking a balance between the various environmental systems in what is known as the ecosystem. These measures would reduce the potential negative effects of climate change and contribute effectively to achieving sustainable development of coastal areas.
are the basic values of the methodology of the Adaptation Enhancement Project. The project is not a regular project that aims only to protect low lands and implement a new methodology for work, but it directly targets the human resource, addressing people that change and capacity development is the way to live safe and sustainable, and that success is not in individuality, but in Cooperation, and that preference is in integration. The Adaptation Enhancement Project is a humanitarian step towards a better future.
The project aims to reduce the risks of coastal flooding
in the northern coast and the Nile River Delta region of Egypt, especially in the five (5) most vulnerable and endangered hotspots within the Nile Delta with a length of 69 km, which were identified during the engineering scoping study and the technical feasibility study, and it is also working on developing a plan Integrated coastal zone management for the entire northern coast to manage the risks of climate change in the long term, and to provide Egypt with the ability to adapt to the imminent flood risks.
It is to strengthen national capabilities now
It is to enhance the resilience of local communities
Change - Cooperation - Integration
The project aims to reduce the risks of coastal flooding
