Various activities and responsibilities are undertaken by SCA employees all aiming at the maintenance and preservation of Egypt's universal heritage recognized worldwide as of supreme interest. To guarantee a fixed income needed for this purpose, outside exhibitions are held all over the world. These exhibitions admired by many serve as mobile ambassadors to our country and our Ancient Civilization. The viewers enjoy in their own countries aspects and specimen of the glorious past that had influenced humanity in general and Egypt in particular. These exhibitions served this purpose as from 1998 and are still on as the latest is actually taking place in Japan. The active Ibrahim Abdel Gelil is responsible Manager for external exhibitions.  Every object sent out of Egypt is carefully selected amongst the wide collection existing in our Museums according to criteria of importance set in advance.
