APCO Worldwide is working for the Egyptian Ministry of International Cooperation to promote US media coverage of its “engaging for impact” forum slated Sept. 8-9 at the Nile Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Cairo.

Taking a cue from president Biden the forum will highlight the “significance of multilateralism with an emphasis on country ownership for ‘building back better’ in transition economies and developing countries in Africa.”
