【 摘 要 】

In conjunction with the current Egyptian sustainable and economic reform plan to enrich the country resources and face future challenges, the megaprojects have been pursued to improve the infrastructure and encourage investment. Starting with renewable energy planets and passing by 14 new sustainable cities all over Egypt to absorb the future expected population and improve the living standards of the Egyptian citizens. One of those cities is the New Administrative Capital which is being built as a smart city on an uninhabited strategic area between the Suez Canal and the Nile River and it will become the new administrative and financial capital of Egypt, housing the main government departments and ministries, as well as foreign embassies. This paper attempts to review the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals in the Egyptian megaprojects with a special focus for the Egyptian New Administrative Capital city.
