DAAD - Branch Office Cairo
Welcome to the DAAD Office in Cairo!
Dear friends of the DAAD Cairo,
After five years as the director of this office, my time here in Egypt is coming to an end: On the 1st of September 2010, my colleague Dr. Michael Harms will take over my responsibilities here in Cairo – while at the same time, I will assume his position at DAAD HQ as "Head of Division: North Africa, Middle East, Gulf”. I strongly believe this is a very positive development – not only for the two of us, but also for DAAD future’ work in Egypt and in the region. This arrangement will provide for some positive and needed continuity – and, of course, it will give me the chance to stay in touch with our many friends and colleagues in this wonderful country.
But first of all, please allow me to thank all of you for the wonderful spirit of friendship and cooperation I have experienced here in Egypt – it has been a truly remarkable experience which I will never forget.
I also would like to wish Dr. Harms all the best for his time in Egypt – with the support of our highly committed team here at the office, he will continue the manifold initiatives and projects we have started in the last years.
I am looking forward to seeing many of you once again, either in Egypt or in Germany,
Best regards,
Dr. Christian Hülshörster
Dr. Christian Bode, Secretary General of DAAD, introducing Dr.
