The Ministry of Environment (MOE) has improved the governance framework and promoted new policy instruments to meet growing environmental challenges. The purpose of this CEA is to help Egypt address some of these environmental challenges by providing strategic guidance to the GOE to achieve green, resilient, and inclusive growth while creating new jobs. This CEA has been developed in consultation with the GOE and has identified short-to medium-term priority areas in: (i) circular economy (CE) for industrial pollution and waste management; (ii) blue economy (BE) with a focus on sustainable coastal zone management; (iii) environmental governance; and (iv) innovative green financing mechanisms targeting the CE and BE. It was conducted by reviewing existing analytical work on environmental management in Egypt, current environmental regulations, strategies, reports, and public data. In addition, consultation workshops, meetings (with government representatives, nongovernmental organizations [NGOs], research institutions, private sector, and key experts), and focus group discussions were carried out to further modify or validate the findings.
