ABOUT SEKEM
Founded in 1977 by Dr. Ibrahim Abouleish, the SEKEM Initiative is a pioneering model of sustainable development in Egypt that transforms desert land into thriving, life-sustaining ecosystems. Built upon the principles of biodynamic agriculture, SEKEM integrates ecology, economy, society, and culture to create a balanced and holistic approach to human and environmental growth.
Today, SEKEM is home to organic farms, schools, medical centres, cultural institutions, and Heliopolis University for Sustainable Development. Its mission is to cultivate a world where economic success works hand-in-hand with social responsibility and ecological restoration — nurturing communities that live in harmony with nature.
