Farbbalken Klein Cooperation with the Transition Countries Egypt and Tunisia- 2012 Call for Applications cbe_mittel The Egyptian and the Tunisian people attained the resignation of their authoritarian governments by peaceful demonstrations in the beginning of 2011. The people’s dauntless commitment for democracy, responsible government and constitutionality deeply impressed the global public. Germany supports this process of democratization actively. Thus, the German government already made suggestions for a new transformation partnership by the end of January 2011. As a result, Egypt and Tunisia get the support that is needed for the democratic change. The central role in this period is assigned to the universities of both countries. The DAAD supports several measures aiming at strengthening the higher education in these destinations with funds from the Federal Foreign Office, beginning in 2012. Central aspects of these measures will be the Universities’ contribution to research and teaching in order to support civil societal and democratic structures and the transformation process on the one hand, as well as strengthening the scientific and technological performance of these countries on the other hand. The Transformation Partnership consists of four Program Lines: Important: Only Program Linie 2 is open for applications from German universities Program Line 1 " Transformation Partnerships with Universities in Egypt and Tunisia” Call for applications 2012 For further inquiries please contact Mr. Mohamed Fathy: Mohamed.Fathy@daadcairo.org Program Line 2 "Short-term Cooperation with Universities in Egypt and Tunisia” Call for applications 2013 For further inquiries please contact Ms. Janina Ackermann: janina.ackermann@daadcairo.org Program Line 3 "Joint Master Programs” Call for applications 2012 For further inquiries please contact Mr. Mohamed Fathy: Mohamed.Fathy@daadcairo.org Program Line 4 "German-Arab Research Partnerships – Al Tawasul” Call for applications 2012 For further inquiries please contact Mr. Christian Melchert: Christian.Melchert@daadcairo.org Publication 2012 : German-Arab Transformation Partnership Farbbalken Klein The DAAD Cairo is now on Facebook and Twitter!
