European Union marks Climate Action Day in Egypt

On the 20 October 2016 The European Union (EU) Delegation to Egypt celebrated the EU Climate Action Day in Cairo in cooperation with the EU Member States Embassies.

The event offered the opportunity to the Ambassadors of the EU Member States to present trees to be planted in Cairo Ezbet El Nasr area, where the Urban Development Programme, jointly financed by the EU and Germany, implemented by GIZ is working to rejuvenate the neighbourhood by reconstructing the streets and planting trees with the objective of climate adaptation.
