In January 2025, the launch event for Professor Khaled El-Enany’s campaign for the Post of Director-General of UNESCO was held in Cairo, bringing together a distinguished assembly of representatives, including honorable ambassadors and diplomats from the different foreign embassies, missions, and international organizations located in Egypt.

The gathering took place at the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization, a UNESCO project and a venue of great significance to Professor Khaled El-Enany, as it marked the starting point of his public service journey in 2014 as Director of the museum. 

The event was an occasion to highlight Professor El-Enany’s dedication to values such as education, scientific research, cultural heritage, and the belief that progress begins with people. These principles reflect a broader commitment to fostering open dialogue, strengthening international cooperation, and promoting inclusivity across all communities.

Through his candidacy, Professor El-Enany aspires to bring this vision to UNESCO, emphasizing its role as a platform for unity, inspiration, and meaningful change. His vision seeks to reaffirm and advance UNESCO’s mission to serve people and contribute to a better future for all.
