Egypt

The Nile River has been central to Egypt’s economy and culture since ancient times for a simple reason: water is essential to the well-being of people. For the past two decades, Winrock has collaborated with Egyptian leaders and citizens to develop more effective infrastructure and practices to manage and distribute this most critical resource. Our work in Egypt has also helped small farmers increase their incomes by opening up markets for their products and improving access to quality seeds, fertilizer and effective cultivation techniques.
