It was founded in 1977 not far from Cairo on a piece of desert land. The vision of Egyptian pharmacologist Ibrahim Abouleish is to establish a model in which all aspects of life are part of development: agricultural work, economic practice, teaching and educational activities, social engagement, and cultural activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In over three decades of tireless pioneering spirit and intensive networking and cooperation, SEKEM has become a leading representative of sustainable development. Since the revolution in Egypt in 2011, SEKEM has become increasingly important for the restructuring of Egypt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Foundation has defined various priorities for funding.
