women in any society. In Egypt women constitute
about 52% of the population and a society
in which women are underprivileged can never

our belief, we at ARTOC have regularly supported
the National Council for Women as well

We nurture them by investing in programs
to bring them music, art, theatre and sports.
ARTOC also supports the Suzanne Mubarak
Children's Museum, as well as the Egyptian
Council for Childhood, Culture and Arts –
which organizes the annual International Nile
Song Festival for Children.
ARTOC also supported the International
Youth Forum in Sharm El Sheikh which was
attended by over 1,000 people of whom around
800 were aged between 18 and 25 from over 113
countries.

public policy for Egyptian society
and its constitutional institutions concerning
the empowerment of women. It creates
plans to carry out its mandate and
monitor the implementation through the
intensive efforts of its various committees,
branch offices, and General Secretariat. |
