Vision A Sustainable effective Environment and Development Programs in Upper Egypt. Mission To shift the balance of Egyptian policy and practice in favor of environmental justice and sustainability in upper Egypt. Values We believe in sustainable development - meeting the needs of the current generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. We believe in environmental limits - there are definite limits to what we can take from the natural environment and to the pollution and waste we can dump into the environment. Within those limits we believe in fair shares of the available environmental space: in particular we are aware that the impacts of damage to the environment hit the poorest in the community the hardest both at home and overseas. We believe in evidence based solutions to environmental problems that make life better for people while protecting the planet for future generations. We believe in promoting people's action, individual and collective, local, national and international, to tackle the environmental challenges we face.
