Description
Where preparations are being made to launch a large campaign to appeal to the world with all international institutions, as well as the peoples of the world, to define Egypt's right to a binding agreement with Ethiopia to guarantee Egypt's share of the Nile River water, as it is considered the lifeline of Egypt and its people (more than 12 million people) who could be exposed to the risk of dying of thirst in case Ethiopia encroached on Egypt's water share due to its construction of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, where this campaign will be carried out on two main axes:
* Intensive global media awareness to introduce the Egyptian issue with Ethiopia and reject it by agreeing to sign a binding contract with Ethiopia to preserve Egypt's water share of the Nile River by presenting (causes of the problem - working on thinking and mediation methods through international institutions - and forming a front for global popular pressure on Egypt's rights history in the Nile River.
* Searching for partners from (international financial institutions, investors or innovators) to support Egypt in finding innovative and new solutions or projects to solve the water shortage problem facing Egypt.
We hope that our voice will be heard and that the Ethiopian leadership will respond to our calls as soon as possible
