Our main program “ICT Egypt” strives to create change in the Egyptian society by providing Egyptian youths with the basic skills needed in today’s job market. ICT Egypt currently provides training in computer programs and world languages including English, Spanish, French, Italian, German and Arabic.

Besides our main program, Better World also offers internships and volunteer positions in various programs (i.e. Social Awareness, training, Environmental, Job Listing and Entrepreneurship).
