Egyptian Green ICT Strategy

Since 1970, the production of greenhouse gases has risen by more than 70 %, and this is having a global effect in warming the planet, causing changing weather patterns, rising sea-levels, desertification, shrinking ice cover and other worrying long-term effects. Environment protection is a shared responsibility between the various ministries and sectors and one of the pivots to reach sustainable development. Sustainable development can be conceptually broken into three constituent parts: environment Sustainability, economic sustainability and sociopolitical sustainability. Why green ICT now ?

Strategic Objectives Raise community awareness about Green ICT challenges and opportunities. Set fundamentals and national policies for Green ICT. Adopt a multi-stakeholder approach to address various green ICT challenges. Reduce the adverse environmental effects resulting from the expansion in the use of ICT. Support the use of communication and information technology as an effective tool to reduce GHG emissions resulting from other sectors.

The Framework 1.Raising Community awareness about Green ICT Program. 2.E-waste sustainable Management Program. 3.ICT solutions For a sustainable future program.

1.Raise Community awareness about Green ICT Program 1.Establishing a Green ICT Community of Expertise (CoE). 2.Organizing workshops and sessions to raise community awareness about green ICT. 3.Developing a training program for building capacities in the field of green ICT.

1.Raise Community awareness about Green ICT Program 4.Producing promotional material to raise community awareness about green ICT. 5.Compiling manuals to raise the awareness of public and private sector about Green ICT. 6.Establishing conditions and specification for Green ICT equipments in line with global trends.

2.
