The Integrated Management of Cultural Tourism (IMCT) Project funded by USAID and implemented by FHI 360 in collaboration with the Supreme Council of Antiquities, is designed to address current global trends towards more experiential and authentic travels, focusing on Historic Cairo and Luxor destinations, and lays the foundation for a more sustainable cultural tourism management approach that will strategically position Egypt for the years to come.
