“This is not only limited to governments, as the world is witnessing environmental disasters that do not differentiate between developed and developing countries,” said Fouad.

Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, Egypt’s President, has launched several initiatives, most notably the World Youth Forum. During COP27, a youth conference will be held before the official launch of the event, where young representatives will be able to present the Global Youth Statement and key policies for driving climate ambition to high-level policymakers.
“There are many national initiatives to help young people engage in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) working in the area of environmental protection, including transforming agricultural waste to biogas targeting 60 million Egyptians and riding bikes instead of vehicles to reduce emissions,” said Fouad.
On the upcoming COP28 climate conference, which will be held at Expo City Dubai - the reimagined site of the Expo 2020 Dubai world fair – Fouad said, “We are proud of the partnership between Egypt and the UAE, which extends further to just organising climate conferences. We believe that COP28 is the continuation of COP27, and the hosting of both events by Arab countries sends a strong message to the world.”
“COP27 and COP28 will continue the pioneering role of Egypt and the UAE in driving the process of environmentally-friendly sustainable development.”
