    It also represents the culmination of state efforts to preserve its cultural heritage from various eras and strengthen its presence locally and abroad.

    The Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research affirmed its continued support for the National Committee’s efforts to expand Egypt’s participation in the programs and activities of international organizations and to register more of its cultural and natural sites.

    This will aid in strengthening the country’s soft power, and better consolidate its cultural standing globally.

    The Secretary-General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, Hisham al-Leithy, explained that the Ministry of Tourism, represented by the Council, has prepared and submitted comprehensive scientific files for the registration of these sites.
