Community participation represents one of the fundamental pillars of the institutional capacity of Faculty of Archaeology, Sohag University. Through this, the Faculty can provide all forms of support for community service and environmental development, and strengthen the mutual ties between the Faculty, the university community, and the external community at all levels and with its diverse institutions
. The faculty’s Agency for Community Service and Environmental Development aims to build close bridges of cooperation between the academic scientific side and the societal and environmental side, by launching and activating several main axes to achieve its adopted goals.
