The APRM Country Review Team comprises of 15 technical experts from 10 African countries who were warmly welcomed in Egypt. The APRM Country Review Mission teams are currently reviewing Egypt on the following thematic areas: Democracy and Political Governance, Economic Governance and Management, Socio-Economic Development and Corporate Governance.
Since the commencement of the mission on 29 November 2019, the team has been conducting in-depth engagements with state and non-state actors that represent the Egyptian society. Thus far, the Mission Team has made visits to Technical Research Institutions (TRIs), National Governing Council (NGC), Federation of Egyptian Industries, National Council for Women, Ministry of Justice, Central Agency for Organization and Administration, Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics and Federation of Egyptian Chambers of Commerce and General Federation of NGOs.
