Egypt's parliament approves French-funded boost to French-language teaching
Egypt's House of Representatives on Tuesday approved a 2 million euro partnership agreement with the French Development Agency. The funding will support the second phase of a project to improve the teaching of French as a second foreign language in state schools.
Why it matters
The agreement reflects ongoing educational cooperation between Egypt and France and directly concerns state-school students who study French as a second language. Its practical impact should become clearer as the project's second phase gets under way.
Background
The French Development Agency is a French public institution that finances development projects in a number of countries. The agreement funds a second phase of an existing project, which means the initiative is already under way in Egypt's government schools.
