Aswan University and the National Council for Women seek to consolidate the recognition and acknowledgment of the essential value of Egyptian women’s rights as guaranteed by the constitution, and to activate and ensure the availability, respect and protection of these rights on the ground, taking into account the principles of social justice and equal opportunities, equality and non-discrimination, protection, and empowerment.
The Council’s work strategy stems from the results of measuring the effectiveness of government policies and directions related to the advancement of women’s status, and developing social, cultural and legal frameworks in order to meet the needs, fill the gaps and integrate a gender perspective into the state’s strategy for sustainable development – Egypt’s Vision 2030 – in accordance with the Women’s Empowerment Strategy 2030.
