Nasr is the first woman, Egyptian, and African to join the committee for her work in development over the past period. The United Nation’s Social Impact Fund’s Consultative Committee was established in November 2016 with the aim of supporting the goals of sustainable development, the private sector and its businesses, and providing the financing necessary for investors and entrepreneurs. In her meeting with Aboul-Hosn in the headquarters of the Ministry of Investment, Nasr discussed the ways in which cooperation can be reinforced in the field of supporting investment and the business environment to support sustainable development. They also discussed the necessary steps to take to establish a fund to support development-oriented investments in Egypt. Nasr explained that as the rapporteur of the national committee to follow up the implementation of the sustainable development goals, she coordinates between several ministries to work towards achieving the objectives of the sustainable development strategy.
