Carving a Future in Cairo’s Darb al-Ahmar

Carving a Future in Cairo's Darb al-AhmarBy Caroline Lai, Program Assistant with Aga Khan Foundation U.S.A.

I returned to Cairo in mid-February to visit the USAID-funded Head Start! for Youth Entrepreneurship and Employment program where I met with a diverse range of people involved in the program. When I previously visited in November, I spent most of my time working with the program staff to develop our work plan for next year. During my most recent visit, I was able to see in action the activities we had discussed and spend a considerable amount of time interacting with the beneficiaries we promised we would reach.

Despite challenges, Head Start! remains a fascinating and beneficial program.
