Minister of Local Administration Eng.

The meeting, attended by Deputy Minister Moeen Mahmoud, ministry undersecretaries, and several UNDP representatives, focused on mechanisms to strengthen institutional capacity-building programs and reinforce the developmental role of governorates.

Discussions were held within the framework of the Presidential Leadership Council and government directives aimed at advancing financial and administrative decentralization and enabling local authorities to exercise their mandates through measurable executive programs.
