Opinion| Egypt: Post-COVID-19 Challenges

Egypt is the only Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region country to avoid contraction in fiscal year (FY) 2020/21. We expect growth to moderate from 3.6% in FY 2019/20 to 2.3% in FY 2020/21, supported by accommodative monetary and fiscal policies, and the progress in structural reforms prior to the pandemic.

Opinion| Women at the centre of COVID-19 response

And COVID-19 will continue to have far-reaching impact on the hard-won gender equality gains in all countries. No country has fully achieved gender equality, with all countries grappling with gaps in women’s equal participation in economic and public life. All countries are also struggling to address the “shadow” pandemic – violence against women.

Opinion| In the face of challenges, we need to work together

The UK is leading the charge. My government wants both to build back better in our own society, and also to support other countries in their own fight. We can only do this by working together. Whether this is through bilateral engagement, or through multilateral collective effort, the ultimate solution to this problem is, and has to be, a joint one.
