sYour assistance and patience to support networking with different entities is valuable.
I attended the Crafts workshop provided about product quality and assurance and it was really inspiring and beneficial. We have gathered so much information on common issues in Egypt concerning that topic.
I would like to thank you for making these events accessible to everybody, as well as providing excellent opportunities for networking.

The Sustainable Business Circle is a joint initiative between RIBH MENA and the Global Compact Network Egypt in the form of a monthly meeting for sus-tainability practitioners to discuss challenges around CSR or IB. Each session is always followed by an informal breakfast for further networking and collab-oration between participants. The Sustainable Business Circle aims at creat-ing a regular, interactive setting in order to obtain tangible outcomes towards sustainable development in Egypt, introducing new business ideas and trends. It keeps momentum on CSR and IB going, gains a pulse on what companies need/want, collects a database of CSR/IB practioners in Egypt, and gathers case study presentations on challenges in Egypt. The community is also con-nected on the LinkedIn group: Cairo Sustainable Business Circle.

Communicating Corporate Sustainability in the MENA Region
A comparative study on non-financial reporting across 17 countries in the Middle East and North Africa
Published by:
RIBH MENA launched the first study on sustain-ability reporting across the MENA region in April 2014. It was presented to a diverse audience of sustainability practitioners in Cairo during the Sus-tainable Business Circle on the 16th of April 2014. The study was conducted by Ahead of The Curve and provides detailed information for business owners, sustainability managers and policy makers alike on the state of sustainability communication among 170 of the largest listed companies from 17 countries in the Middle East

and North Africa. It highlights pioneers according to country of origin, business sector and company size and looks not only at comprehensive sustainability reporting, but also at patterns of general sustainability communication as well as non-communication.While only 19% of companies provide full sustainability reporting, another 40% engage at least in basic sustainability communication, mainly via online tools. Still, more than 40% of companies surveyed don’t communicate on sustain-ability practices at all. Only 7% of companies report data for their sustainability activities and performance.
RIBH MENA is currently also preparing a series of of Sustainability Reporting workshops during the Sustainable Business Circles in collaboration with Ahead of The Curve.

One of RIBH MENA’s strong methods of communication and awareness creation is through designing visual infographics. The one on the right summarizes the outcomes of the “Sustainability Reporting in the MENA Region” study, indicating via color codes the reporting habits of 170 of the largest listed companies in the MENA region.
The infograph is divided into three main sections; country, sector, and size. Each section indicates the re-porting style of the majority of com-panies surveyed. The darker blue represents extensive reporters, the medium turquoise represents com-panies that provide some information on their sustainability practices, while the light aqua represents companies that do not report at all.

“Grown in Egypt”
Farm to Fork is an initiative by RIBH MENA that aims to enhance the network and promote the culture of sustainability in the food sector. It started by creat-ing a Seasonality Chart of fruits and vegetables in Egypt in collaboration with the Egyptian Chefs Association (ECA), Semiramis Intercontinental, Nawaya, Gedety, and El Nour. Followed by the “Grown in Egypt” Female Chef of the Year competi-tion that took place at HACE ’14 Fair which RIBH MENA participated in organizing with the ECA. And finally, the “Farm to Fork” Conference - the first sustainable food conference to take place in Egypt at the Semiramis Pavillion, in collabora-tion with Semiramis Intercontinental, ECA, and the Chamber of Food Industries.

As a champion for responsible and inclusive business practices in Egypt and the MENA region we want to set an example by greening our own events. We can only succeed in this if we work closely with our suppliers, including catering providers. Here is the Semiramis Intercontinental Egypt implementation of the catering concept we developed together.
FairTrade Coffee. Coffee with the FairTrade label means that producers get a higher-than-usual price for their coffee and that a percentage of profits goes into community projects. In Egypt, FairTrade Coffee us for example available from Carrefour.
More seasonal fruit and vegetables grown in Egypt on menus and in dishes to support our local farmers and avoid long transport routes (and associated costs). You might even think of working with small farmers to provide specialty produce such as micro-herbs and edible flowers.
Packed leftovers for take away. Food will be eaten later and shared with people at the office and the community.
Put up signs that inform guests that the coffee is FairTrade, the tea is organic and flowers are grown locally.

In 2014, Dokkan Dilwa2ty continues with a series of destination-themed events and pop-up shops that support local crafts, eco-lodges, and local tourism in Egypt. In February 2014, the series started with an event on Tunis Village in Fayoum, which was followed by another one in April on Siwa, and lastly, an-other one in June on Aswan and Nubian culture.
The Idea „sandmade“ is a new design label that provides high quality handcraft, fair trade and eco-‐friendly products for Egyptian companies in growing industries and facilitates access to sustainable markets for community and artisan projects. As a service partner for the companies we identify opportunities to use fair trade, handcraftetd and eco-‐friendly products and supplies that can be found in Egypts artisan, handcraft and environmental sector , e.g. as business gifts, interior design elements or kitchen and paper supplies. Joint with the community projects we will develop solutions for the best serving products and manage the whole distribution process. With „sandmade“ Egyptian community projects will be able to expand to new markets within Egypt while companies can show their responsibility for environmental and social progress and set themselves apart from the uniform products that usually serve as business supplies.
The Values „sandmade“ is a statement for a new, value-‐oriented, sensual and authentic
business culture that connects design and development, culture and commerce and environment and ethics.
Core Activities Research of needs and desires for fair trade, eco-‐friendly or handmade products
and supplies within the cooperating companies. Research for the best serving products on the fair trade and handmade market and/or development of individual design and production solutions. Handling of the business transaction including quality assurance, packaging, delivery, money transfer.
The Products Different kinds of business gifts
Smart phone and pad folios, card cases, notebook bags, pocket books Paper supplies Business and greeting cards, pocket books, office paper Elements of interior design Furniture, rugs, decoration, art, tablewear
The Beneficiaries Community and ecological projects that provide fair waged work for women, poor
people or handicapped will be able to extend and improve their work. Companies can connect their social responsibility goals with unique business features like handmade business gifts, fair trade kitchen supplies or eco-‐friendly office equipment.

Through many activities relating to and involving crafts producers over the past year, RIBH MENA has gathered sufficient amounts of information on the crafts sector in Egypt. Formats include the pop-up shop “Dokkan Dilwa2ty” which brought producers from various governorates to Cairo and a series of work-shops held in cooperation with GIZ EconoWin; “Amayel Edayya” which looked more into the problems that the supply side faces in order to reach the market and final consumer. Furthermore, RIBH MENA has produced several case stud-ies on the sector, and is running a corporate gift survey in partnership with a start-up working in the field “Sandmade”. Finally, RIBH MENA had run a crafts campaign in partnership with BridgEgypt in December 2013.

One of the activities RIBH MENA focus-es on is Sustainable Tourism in Egypt and the MENA region. We participat-ed in a series of eco-lodge workshops conducted by GIZ’s Private Sector De-velopment Programme (PSDP) in Fay-oum, Baharia, and Aswan. Based on the workshops, we are now developing with PSDP an eco-tourism manual of two parts; one for tourists who are interest-ed in eco-tourism in Egypt with destina-tions and contacts, and one for lodges who want to operate sustainably.We also offer one-on-one trainings to lodges or hotels intrested in de-veloping their business models with eco-social innovation. We bring four experts from sustainable tourism and related fields to work with you free of charge for three full days to:• Analyse the business to map existing eco-social credentials• Identify new potentials for activities related to environmental footprint

RIBH MENA also wrote 3 case studies on ecolodges in Egypt and is now run-ning a monthly Ecotourism Meetup with PSDP to discuss challenges and opportunities of ecotourism in Egypt.
Together with RIBH hubs in Jakarta and Pretoria, we’re creating a framework for international in-clusive tourism.
