Senior Evaluator
Conducting a Baseline study on creating a safer city for the adolescent girls in Ezbet Khairallah for the Because I am a Girl Urban Programme (BIAAG Urban Programme).
This BIAAG UP is a joint programme developed in partnership between Plan International, Women in Cities International, and UN-HABITAT to address the increased risks and
opportunities for adolescent girls in cities. The overarching goal of the programme is to build safe, accountable, and inclusive cities with and for adolescent girls in all their diversity. The programme will be carried out in five cities around the world: Delhi, India; Cairo, Egypt; Hanoi, Vietnam; Kampala, Uganda; and Lima, Peru. The outcomes of the
programme include: (i) increased adolescent girls' safety and access to public spaces; (ii) increased adolescent girls' active and meaningful participation in urban development and governance; and (iii) increased adolescent girls' autonomous mobility in the city.
The program is being implemented within a context where Egypt is experiencing three drawbacks. First drawback is the deterioration of services and facilities as a result of the dissolve of local councils. The situation is even worst in informal settlement such as Ezbet Khairallah. Second drawback is the weak security system in Egypt after the uprising of 2011, leaving behind several areas unsecured, a matter that raised rates of crimes of sexual harassment, raping, robbery and murder. Third drawback is the regression of the status of women and girls especially during the years 2011-2012 and 2013. Many policies and laws that should have been developed were upheld due the instability of the political situation in Egypt. Women and girls are mostly suffering the consequences of these drawback and many strategies and policies were suspended and others laws were pending the stability in the political field.
