Youth engagement

My name is Mayar Fahim, and I am an Aerospace Engineer at the Egyptian Space Agency, specializing in the Attitude and Orbit Control Subsystem (AOCS) hardware. My role bridges innovation, applied research, and the strategic application of space technologies for national development. I hold a bachelor's degree in Aircraft and Rocket Construction and Design from the National Aerospace University in Ukraine and am currently pursuing a master's degree in Aerospace Engineering at the Military Technical College in Cairo. I actively participate in global youth science diplomacy initiatives, including the BRICS+ Youth Club and the World Youth Festival in Sochi, Russia. I believe that space technologies should address real-world challenges, especially in climate-vulnerable regions. My work contributes to Egypt’s satellite missions focused on water monitoring, agriculture, and sustainable resource management. I advocate for localizing user needs in satellite applications and fostering cross-sector collaboration to ensure that satellite data translates into actionable insights. A recent focus of my work includes using satellite imagery to support decision-making in water resource distribution and sustainable agriculture in desert reclamation zones, such as the Toshka Lakes in Egypt. I view Space4Water as a vital platform for dialogue, knowledge sharing, and practical engagement, particularly across low- and middle-income countries.
