Cairo, Egypt –The Cairo University SIFE team was named SIFE Egypt National Champion and will advance to represent Egypt at the SIFE World Cup in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, this October.

Every country that operates a SIFE program is eligible to conduct a national competition for the teams in that country. Each SIFE team presents the results of their outreach projects to determine which teams made the most impact on their communities. The national champions then face each other at the SIFE World Cup. Thirty-nine SIFE teams are expected to participate in this year's international competition.
