Egypt plays a critical role for peace and stability in the MENA region. It is a key partner of Switzerland in the South Mediterraneanand and Africa. During the last 45+ years of bilateral cooperation, Switzerland and Egypt have developed strong ties based on mutual interests and trust.

The Cooperation Programme 2025–2028 marks the fourth comprehensive programme in Egypt, implemented by three entities of the Swiss public administration, namely the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) and the State Secretariat for Migration (SEM). This multifaceted approach responds to the complex needs and opportunities, adding Swiss value where it has the biggest impact. The present programme is aligned with the relevant strategic frameworks of the Swiss government and the development priorities of Egypt. The programme focuses on Protecting lives, green economic development and improving governance in Egypt.
