Supporting the Institution of Parliament in Egypt

The popular uprising in the Middle East has exposed the fragility of the governance models in the region. The Centre collaborated with two institutions to build local capacity and to strengthen their skills in parliamentary relation: One World Foundation for Development and Civil Society in Cairo, and MADA for Media Development. The project strengthened civil society leaders, giving them the capacity to train Egyptian Members of Parliament and parliamentary staff, to help improve the effectiveness of the country and its people.
