President Sisi greets Christian Egyptian expats on occasion of Easter

CAIRO – 21 April 2021: President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi greeted Thursday Christian Egyptian expats on the occasion of the Eastern Easter, marking April 24 this year.

Minister of Immigration and Egyptian Expatriate Affairs Nabila Makram stated earlier in April that the ministry and the National Academy for Training collaborated together to launch a training program for female expats aged 25-50 and recipients of higher education.

The program is aimed at sharpening the personal skills of those women, and educating them on Egyptian affairs so they would be well equipped to help correcting disinformation on the country's internal status.  

Makram pointed out that the cooperation between the academy and the ministry is the request of many expats as a result of the former's distinguished services provided to 28,000 candidates.

The minister underlined the campaign titled "One Woman Equals 100 Men," whose purpose is to encourage female expats to present their achievements. In that context, Makram highlighted that in 2017, a conference was held for outstanding female expats to share their inspiring stories within the "Egypt Can" series of events.  

Similarly, Makran highlighted in January the effective role of Egyptian-Canadian students Canada in supporting Decent Life initiative.
