Workshop Goal & Objectives
Goal: To identify strategic research areas and topics of the Egypt SSP for the period 2016-2020
Objectives:
a) To learn about Egypt’s main development challenges and opportunities
b) To understand which organizations and research institutions engage in which areas and are concerned with which issues
c) To identify existing knowledge gaps and IFPRI’s potential contributions
… within four broad themes.
The findings from this workshop will be summarized in a report and published.

Procedures: Overview
• Morning and afternoon sessions are structured identically:
1) To spark the discussions, rapid-fire presentations by IFPRI researchers—providing the global perspective and presenting examples of relevant research—and national experts—providing the Egyptian perspective
2) Breakout group discussions on topics of one theme
3) Plenary discussion, especially on cross-theme issues
• Each participant will join one breakout group discussion in the morning and one breakout group in the afternoon.
• Name badges show the groups.
• Breakout group discussions: Carousel approach
• Time keeping (Yifei, Daniel): Cards and bell

Breakout Group Discussion: Carousel Approach
• Within one theme session, groups will rotate between three tables and discuss another subject on every table.
• All subjects can be discussed independently of each other but build upon one another.
• One group will follow up on the discussion of the previous group and complements it ( carousel). Facilitators will summarize the discussion points of the previous group(s).
• All discussions will be guided by three questions that are identical for all themes.
