The governmental school system is more and more unable to deliver both the necessary quantities but worse the necessary quality in education that Egypt would need to cope with today\u2018s and future challenges. Hebet el-Nil is an international project for providing the rural population in el-Bai\u2018rat village on the westbank of Luxor with a modern school facility. The school has been meanwhile provided with the necessary approvals within the Egyptian education system and works within the regulations which apply for community schools, whilst providing additional elements and methods transferred from the Waldorf pedagogy approach and adapted for the target group of children in the rural setting of Upper Egypt In summer 2017, the small school Hebet el-Nil opened with a first kindergarten group, from which, already in the following year, a small elementary school with one first grade developed. Since then the school is growing and housed 6 primary education classes with 123 students in the year 2024, as well as 58 KG children.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scope of work:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Support and consulting the local community and international supporters in establishing the NGO \u201eHebet el-Nil\u201c, project meetings with all stakeholders incl HE the Governor of Luxor, support and consulting the Hebet el-Nil NGO for establishing the community school and get necessary approvals from governmental entities in the education sector, establishment of criteria for suitable land for the school construction in Luxor, preparation and execution of educational need assessment for 4 of the central educational districts in the Governorate of Luxor covering over 50 schools, complete analysis of problems and shortcomings in the basic education sector and providing the NGO, the MoE directorate, the local GAEB branch and HE the Governor of Luxor with the results, conceptional analysis of basic requirements for room program and required areas of the school, cost estimation for different scenarios as basis for the NGO\u2018s fund raising activities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_column_4 et_pb_column et-last-child et_flex_column et_pb_column_empty et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et_flex_column_8_24 et_flex_column_8_24_tablet et_flex_column_24_24_phone et_flex_column_24_24_phoneWide et_flex_column_8_24_tabletWide\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_row_3 et_pb_row et_flex_row\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_column_5 et_pb_column et_flex_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et_flex_column_8_24 et_flex_column_8_24_tablet et_flex_column_24_24_phone et_flex_column_24_24_phoneWide et_flex_column_8_24_tabletWide\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_2 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p><strong>Year:<\/strong><br \/>2016-2017<\/p>\n<p><strong>Client: <\/strong><br \/>Schulverein \u201eHebet el-Nil\u201c, SE der Gouverneur von Luxor, \u00c4gypten<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cooperation: <\/strong><br \/>General Authority for Educational Buildings Egypt (GAEB), Ministry of Education Egypt (MoE)<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_column_6 et_pb_column et_flex_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et_flex_column_8_24 et_flex_column_8_24_tablet et_flex_column_24_24_phone et_flex_column_24_24_phoneWide et_flex_column_8_24_tabletWide\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_3 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p><strong>Hebet el-Nil Kindergarten &amp;
