In the small town of Hamata, on the Egyptian southern Red Sea coast, Chemonics is working to upgrade the infrastructure of the local school to better prepare the youth for the future, develop a waste management facility to create jobs and protect the environment, provide new water trucks to increase the total area for fresh water delivery, and install new generators to provide longer hours for electricity.
Chemonics' Egypt LIFE Red Sea Project is working with local communities, the tourism industry, and the Egyptian Government to promote sustainable environmental tourism and improve the lives of local communities in Hamata and many other communities along the Red Sea coast.
