CAIRO, May 22 (MENA) – Deputy Foreign Minister for Migration and Egyptians Abroad Nabil Habashi announced the start of a new phase in Egypt’s cooperation with Germany to support youth employment and safe labor mobility.

This comes after the first steering committee meeting for phase two of the Egyptian–German Center for Jobs, Migration, and Reintegration, held in Cairo.

The meeting was co-chaired by Habashi and Holger Illge from the German Embassy, with participation from the EU Delegation and GIZ.

The new phase will expand job placement and training programs for Egyptians seeking work in Germany.

Discussions included setting a broader action plan, improving access to the center’s services nationwide, and increasing cooperation with German institutions in need of skilled workers.

The center, established under Presidential Decree No. 51 of 2020, will continue to offer job matching, training, and preparation for Egyptian workers in both Egypt and Germany. The project aims to support safe migration and provide practical pathways to employment. (MENA)
