Almentor, the Arab platform for self-learning, announced its partnership with the Egyptian Ministry of Social Solidarity, to train 2,400 applicants to volunteer at the Climate Change Conference.
This partnership comes as an opportunity to build and develop the volunteers’ capabilities, as the partnership is considered the penultimate stage in selecting the best volunteers for the Climate Change Conference “COP27” that will take place in November, this year.
Ahmed Seada, Assistant Minister of Social Solidarity for Civil Society, affirmed the ministry’s belief in the value of volunteers participating in one of the most important international events and conferences that are held in Egypt. Proceeding from its responsibility towards the climate conference volunteers from Egypt and Africa, the ministry focused on providing them with advanced and intensive programs for building capacity and skills, so this would be appropriate preparation for organizing a major event such as the Climate Change Conference.
For her part, Sally Metwally, vice president of Business Development at almentor, believes that the partnership with the Ministry of Social Solidarity is a critical step that will contribute to developing the capabilities of young volunteers at COP27.
Notably, almentor plays a key role in the development of volunteers by providing free access to more than 700 courses, after completing 8 training tracks selected by the ministry, which represents the penultimate stage in the qualifiers to select the best candidates to attend the conference.
