Women Academics From Egypt

"AI researchers, scientists and students must consider issues ranging from security, privacy and accountability to diversity, equity and inclusion. They need to ask questions about climate and culture alongside questions about ones and zeros."

"there is no better place to affect the development and use of the next generation of technology than the School of Computer Science."

"Saluting a Life of Unflinching Commitment to Justice, Equality and Freedom."

"I hope that Egyptians will realize the importance of having a party like Tagammu that takes their interests into account."

"The resst will come as they have forgotten everything related to civilization, especially since this law does not take into account age or even religion and other basic matters that require examination when enacting any law."

"I respect the Tagammu Party because, in my opinion, it is one of the best opposition parties that emerged under difficult circumstances."

"The right course has become distinct from the wrong."

"A clear violation of human rights laws in general and an infringement on women’s rights in particular."

"The Impact of Social and Economic Factors on Women’s Group Formation in Egypt."

"The discovery of this sarcophagus in its original place in the burial shaft was very exciting because it is the sarcophagus of the owner of the tomb... sometimes the sarcophagus is for a different person of a later period, when the tomb was used in later periods. But this time it is not the case"

"This paper's first aim is to investigate the theme of death and related to it death-penalty, in More's utopia. Secondly by the way of comparison it will simply explore these themes in some modern utopia novels. On the occasion of the 450th anniversary of More's death-penalty the subject almost imposes itself. Although utopia is generally concerned with this world, with the here and now even when it has an eye on the future, and is, thus, a kind of paradise on earth, while death is a matter of the hereafter, yet death and the death- penalty figure, in some form or other, in many a utopia piece of writing. The choice of representatives samples was no difficult matter. Five fairly well known novels have been selected. First Samuel Butler's Erewhon (1872) one of the two novels generally thought to have greatly contributed to the rise of utopia vague in the modern period (the other being Bulwer Lytton's The Coming Race). Then, Anthony Trollope's The Fixed Period (1882), William Morris's News From Nowhere (1892), Aldous Huxley's Brave New World (1932), and finally George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four (1948). To forestall objections to my using the term utopia in reference to works which have come to be widely,and rightly perhaps, described as 'dystopias',let me point out that I am using it as a sort of generic term to cover both the positive pictures of an ideal world and the negative or satiric projections of the present or the future, no less than works of fantasy of the same genre. I rely for support on More himself, whose mixture of the ideal and the satiric in Utopia still baffles many a reader."

"My students and I have worked at the edge of technology, and we’ve advanced several new research directions that have been used by many in our field"

"I’m very happy to be recognized as an NAI Fellow, and I appreciate the work and contributions of my GW students and the support we’ve received over the years"

"The profile of the painting is completed by the scientist who, using appropriate tools, will examine the surface craquelure (the network of cracks in the paint or varnish) as well as its fluorescence properties, analyze the underdrawings, determine the nature of the pigments and binding materials, date the canvas, and also date the frame."

"For a robust profile of an artwork (I am concentrating here on paintings), there needs to be an input from the expert connoisseur, the art historian, as well as the scientist."

"The connoisseur will describe the style and the technique of the artwork attributed to a given artist. If asked to judge the authenticity of the work, the brushwork, style, and composition have to be consistent with those of the purported artist. Furthermore, there needs to be an examination as to whether or not the chronology of the painter’s own artistic development is followed."

"If it is revealed as a forgery, it loses its hold on the viewer. Societal pressures, as well as snobbery, also play a role with regard to the importance of authenticity."

"Authenticity is important on many fronts. Forged works in the arts provide a distorted art-historical understanding of the artist’s oeuvre."

"the only way to become a better human being is to think critically. You must be able to respect yourself, and to think critically."

"you must be strong and independent, while also being flexible. How would you be strong and independent if you have not experienced any of life’s responsibilities? You must get the chance to learn to be responsible for yourself."

"I treated my students the same way I was treated, and that is why I have a wonderful relationship with my students at Cairo University. I consider them my children, and when children grew, we must befriend them"

"I will actually first try to make them understand what is it like to have a disability and that everyone anyone is prone to have a disability so, we can't be looking down upon people with disabilities just to understand what it means to have a disability and then probably I will encourage them to to to push for equal opportunity for everybody to be the ones who ask for people with every type of disability to be included in society, included in universities, included in everything the planning for the curriculum and so on; so, I think the students who have this type of ability to push for that."

"Through the report, policymakers, researchers, and stakeholders are provided with essential data and analysis to help them make informed decisions and to act swiftly and effectively. It presents vital information on climate indicators, impact assessments, adaptation strategies, and policy considerations, creating a centralized resource to guide national and regional initiatives. With accurate and timely information, we can develop targeted policies that address the specific needs of our communities."

"Africa is on the front lines of fighting climate change and is impacts; from rising temperatures to shifting rainfall patterns, and other extreme weather events. As a consequence, key sectors like the agricultural sector, which employs over 60% of Africa’s population, is under threat. Crops are failing, and livestock is suffering as climate variability disrupts traditional farming practices, jeopardizes food supply and economic stability of nations, who are already grappling with high poverty and levels."

"The ECA is pleased to have also contributed to this robust report that offers a comprehensive overview of our climate situation, making it easier to identify trends and challenges, policy opportunities for action and innovative solutions to mitigate the climate crisis that profoundly affects our continent."

Together, we must create a resilient future for Africa that safeguards our environment, supports our communities, and that drives sustainable development and climate action."

"I thrive in challenges and finding ways to break down barriers."

"It is interesting to look at how the advent of technology can have an impact on museum practices and the works of contemporary artists."

"His work is interested in looking at the material as a by-product, as well as questioning contemporary notions of participation and authorship. The research-based practices result in research-performance installations as with his more recent 'Non-Participation Performance' and 'Continuity' works. Over the last four years, Witt has been exploring seemingly disparate subjects in Occupied Palestine, Israel and Lebanon on his project 'A Interloper' which looks at the vernacular of religious calendars found in Jerusalem and originating in the Middle East, looking at different notions of bodily displacement."

"Nathan Witt's work is primarily interested in identifying value and meaning through the dissemination of visual culture and learned history. Since 2002, Witt has produced a varied body of work that includes texts as specific counter-images and counter-objects, focusing on the integrity of the motive and its manipulation; as well as defacing press releases, making books and drawing."

"Derrida, in Writing and Difference, discusses the contradiction of simultaneously writing to remember and writing to forget and quotes Hegel: 'I will speak later about the profound differences between the person of sacrifice, who operates ignorant (unconscious) of the ramifications of what they are doing, and on the Sage (Hegel), who surrenders to a knowledge that, in their own eyes, is absolute."

"Writing, remembering, narrating history and – as with your work – performing history, becomes a duty and responsibility towards knowledge. But at the same time, this responsibility and the striving for knowledge is inherently akin to tensions."

"The performance bridges the gap between the physical, the digital and immaterial realms. In a way, looking at all the different elements that constitute your performance, I would argue that it inhabits the discursive space prompted by the physical space that engages its viewer?"

"The move aims to highlight the country's artistic and historic treasures, foster communication among categories of society alongside shedding light on contributions of the nation's notable figures."

"Opening the museums for free falls within the framework of the Culture Ministry's belief in the key role of museums in raising cultural awareness."
