Message from the President of the Board of Trustees:
Ketharet Dawood Organization for Development (KDOD) is a non-profit organization that has been legally incorporated in Egypt since 2015 (registration number 9771). The organization seeks to provide social services in the key fields of education, training and economic integration.
KDOD believes in the inherent capabilities of all, with programmatic activities targeting children, youth and women.
We believe that each child is entitled to the best possible education and the right to build holistic skills for lifelong learning. We also believe that youth should be supported in their transition to the labor market with the skills, both technical and soft skills, to reach gainful employment. We also believe that empowering women and supporting their economic integration is key not only for gender equality but for the wellbeing of the whole society.
