Utilities Union Chief Says Egypt 2026 Forum Proposals Aim to Improve Living Standards

Hisham Fouad, head of the General Union of Utilities Workers, said recommendations put forward at the Egypt 2026 Forum aim to improve citizens’ quality of life and support comprehensive development.

Fouad highlighted the connection between economic and social policies as a central element of the recommendations, placing living standards alongside wider development goals.

His remarks presented the proposals as part of an approach that links economic policymaking with citizens’ social needs, rather than treating the two as separate priorities.

The recommendations’ stated objectives focus on improving everyday life while advancing development. Fouad’s comments did not outline specific measures or a timetable for implementation.
