Founder of Emaar Misr, Mohamed Alabbar, stated: “The primary goal of any real estate project is to meet the needs of the residents and provide an enhanced standard of living; and this is consistent with Emaar’s strategy of developing integrated urban communities that achieve the concept of sustainable development, and offer a wide range of living services that satisfy all customers. In this light, we believe that the provision of services for health and education is the cornerstone of any society’s ability to grow economically.”
Alabbar further emphasized that the Sidi Abdel Rahman village includes high-quality healthcare and educational facilities and services, in collaboration with all the parties involved — a thorough research was conducted by the Tahya Misr Fund on the challenges and demands of building a sustainable development project in the village of Sidi Abdel Rahman.
Tamer Abdel Fattah, Executive Director of Tahya Misr Fund, said: “The sustainable development projects in the village of Sidi Abdel Rahman are part of the fund’s projects to improve the quality of life for the most marginalized citizens in Egypt’s governorates. It also aims to demonstrate the importance of the role of the private sector in social development projects, with a keen interest in providing exceptional health, education, youth, and sports services, as well as digitized government services using the latest technologies that abide by the country’s trend towards digital transformation.”
The project includes a Tahya Misr Fund Schools complex with a middle school for girls — Moaz Bin Jabal School — with nine classrooms, laboratories, field rooms, and a library, as well as an elementary school with twenty-nine classrooms; emphasizing the importance of reducing student density in classes. Moreover, there is a properly equipped middle-high school with 13 classrooms, and nine high school classes.
Regarding the health sector, Tahya Misr Fund invested in a family and child medical unit in the village; fully equipped with outpatient clinics and a laboratory, as well as an emergency department and sterilization devices to provide distinguished medical services to the residents and all visitors.
Respectively, the youth and sports sector remains one of the primary focuses of the project — a youth sports city was constructed with top-notch facilities, including football fields, a semi-olympic swimming pool, a gymnasium, a combat games hall, and a children’s play area. There is also a billiard hall, table tennis, and a restaurant and cafeteria area in the zone.
With a one-stop system and fiber-optic technology for data transmission speed, the largest service complex was constructed to provide governmental, social, youth, and commercial services to the residents of the village, and 28 other affiliates belonging to El Alamein Center. Furthermore, the complex comprises a government service center, which will provide services such as the Egyptian Post, the educational administration, the local unit, the Drinking Water and Sanitation Company, the supply office, the civil registry office, and the real estate documentation branch.
The technology center for citizen services is based on the Ministry of Planning and Economic Development’s strategy of improving localities in collaboration with the Matrouh Governorate. The facility also houses a banking services center that is open all year. Moreover, in collaboration with the Ministry of Social Solidarity, the Social Services Center was established with the goal of providing social protection and economic development to the residents of the village.
