Upper Egypt Local Development PforR
The development objective of the Local Development Program-for-Results Project for Egypt is to improve the business environment for private sector development and strengthen local government capacity for quality infrastructure and service delivery in select governorates in Upper Egypt. The lack of opportunities for sustainable jobs and growth continue to be significant challenges for the Arab Republic of Egypt. These challenges strongly manifest themselves in Upper Egypt, a grouping of tengovernorates that lag significantly behind the rest of the country in economic growth,employment generation, connectivity, and access to services. Three key constraints, in particular, contribute to weak economic activity in Upper Egypt and relatively low level of private investment: (a) limited empowerment, effectiveness,and accountability of subnational governorates; (b) continuing low levels of access and quality ofinfrastructure and services for both citizens and businesses; and (c) weak investment climate andthe weakness of economic factors supporting value chain development. The first critical constraint to private-sector-led economic growth in Upper Egypt islimited empowerment, accountabili

The Economics of Waterpipe Tobacco Smoking in the Eastern Mediterranean
Tobacco remains a leading cause of death and ill-health globally, including in low and middle-income countries. Extensive empirical research confirms that higher excise taxes reduce tobacco use and discourage non-smokers from initiating smoking. However, this mechanism is still under-used in many countries.
This project will specifically address the knowledge gap on the economics of waterpipe tobacco smoking in the eastern Mediterranean region. A four-institution collaboration across Lebanon, the West Bank, Egypt, and Jordan will generate critically needed information on the increasing popularity and rate of waterpipe smoking and model the economic impact of fiscal policies on tobacco control. It is led by the American University of Beirut, which also hosts the Global Knowledge Hub for waterpipe tobacco smoking. The project team will present this economic evidence in a format that can be used by policymakers to strengthen the coherence and coverage of tobacco control policies in the region with the aim of improving population health and contributing to public revenues.
This project is funded through the Economics of Tobacco Control Research Initiative, an IDRC and Cancer Research
