Furthermore, the Egyptian Food Bank continues to the development of innovative and sustainable solutions to guarantee food security and foster social justice, marking it as a pioneering model in development and humanitarian work across the region.
Mr. Mohsen Sarhan, CEO of the Egyptian Food Bank, received the Humanthropy Award during a ceremony held on the sidelines of the 21st edition of the Dubai International Humanitarian Aid and Development Conference and Exhibition (DIHAD), held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai. The event took place at the Dubai World Trade Centre with broad participation from leading humanitarian and relief organizations.
With this recognition, the Egyptian Food Bank becomes the only Egyptian development organization among the 2025 Humanthropy Award honorees. The award, which received 137 nominations from 42 countries, encompassed several categories including Leadership, Innovation, Sustainability, Peacebuilding, Corporate Social Responsibility, Emerging Humanitarian Leader, and Financial Innovation.
During the DIHAD Conference, Mr. Mohsen Sarhan delivered a keynote speech in the closing session titled “Polarization and Food Security.” His address supported the conference’s main theme, “Humanitarian Aid and Development in a Polarized World”, and explored the various dimensions of polarization and their intensification over recent years. He pointed out the key barriers impeding the path of development at the global level, while affirming that although ending hunger worldwide may be extremely difficult, Egyptian Food Bank is still capable of alleviating the suffering of those most affected.
DIHAD 2025 recorded the participation of over 18,000 attendees from 160 countries, more than 1,060 humanitarian organizations, and 131 speakers who discussed major relief-related topics across 64 main sessions and 197 specialized workshops, further highlighting the critical role of humanitarian work in advancing development across the Arab world and globally.

With a legacy that began in 2006, the Egyptian Food Bank has grown from a national initiative into a regional force in the fight against hunger. While its core mission remains supporting the most vulnerable communities within Egypt, the Egyptian Food Bank has successfully expanded its reach to countries including Algeria, Lebanon, Sudan, and most recently Gaza. The Egyptian Food Bank also partnered with the UAE’s “100 Million Meals” campaign to provide food assistance to low-income families during the holy month of Ramadan.
