Prof. Ismail Ismail Ibrahim, Acting President of Kafrelsheikh University, and Prof. Amany Shaker, Vice President of the University for Community Service and Environmental Development, receive Prof. Soheir Said Mohamed, Executive Director of the Government Excellence Award at the Ministry of Planning, and Prof. Abdel Hakim Radwan, Professor at Assiut University, to train the university’s internal excellence award management team as part of the launch of the third phase of the internal awards system for universities. The meeting is attended by the vices of deans for community service and environmental development from the university's faculties, as well as excellence ambassadors and assessors.

During the meeting, Prof. Ismail Ismail Ibrahim, Acting President of Kafrelsheikh University, states that the university’s participation in the Government Excellence Award is within the framework of Egypt’s Sustainable Development Plan "Egypt Vision 2030", which aims to build an efficient, effective, and accountable administrative system that contributes to competitiveness and quality of life. This also aligns with the Egyptian government's commitment to achieving the reform-oriented goals adopted by the state to elevate our beloved Egypt. The aim is to bring about a qualitative shift in institutional performance through the “Egypt Government Excellence Award,” keeping pace with developments and enhancing human capabilities by establishing a national award for governmental excellence that encourages effective, constructive, and positive competition, while also instilling the principles and values of excellence across all state sectors—whose fruits will be seen in the nation’s progress, development, and prosperity. To support institutional competitiveness and teamwork, the idea of organizing an annual government excellence competition was introduced—not only at the individual level but also at the institutional level.

Otherwise, Prof. Amany Shaker, Vice President for Community Service and Environmental Development, notes that Kafrelsheikh University’s Internal Excellence Award includes the category of “Best Faculty” targeting all university faculties, in addition to the categories of “Team Performance” and “Innovative Government Initiative.” The evaluation process is conducted in accordance with the institutional excellence model, which emphasizes several key pillars: achieving vision, focusing on core tasks, innovation, future foresight, and governance.

The committee meeting aims to discuss ways of supporting applicants for these awards, brief them on the developments from the previous phase, and approve the implementation of the internal excellence system at Kafrelsheikh University.
