Homeless Population in 2024: 12,000,000

Egypt has 12 million homeless people, primarily due to urban disasters that have left people displaced. Most of the homeless people in Egypt live in self-built shacks, while others reside on the street. NGOs like Hope Village Society and Plan International Egypt work to support homeless children. The Ministry of Health and Population is also looking into the homelessness crisis in Egypt to provide asylum and treatment to people experiencing homelessness.
