The British Council supports the growth of a vibrant and entrepreneurial arts scene in Egypt; one that gives space for creative and transformative ideas to flourish and connect with audiences. We work with national and regional partners to shape cultural systems that are inclusive, forward-looking, and impactful, ensuring the arts remain central to public life.
By collaborating with artists and organisations, we strengthen creativity, leadership, and resilience across the sector. From emerging talent to established institutions, we help nurture skills, grow networks, and create opportunities for cultural participation that enrich civic, economic, and cultural life.
Our work also builds bridges through exchange and collaboration, connecting Egyptian and UK practitioners, festivals, and cultural leaders. Through these encounters, new work is created, cultural heritage is safeguarded, and audiences are inspired by experiences that foster representation and belonging.
As a champion of the UK and global creative economies, the British Council shares expertise and networks with creative professionals and policymakers, highlighting culture as a powerful driver of inclusive and sustainable growth.
