Inadequate equipment and facilities. 

   Insufficient coordination between the major 

agencies specially Borders Guards and Fishery 

Development Organization. 

   Delay in the completion of the Red Sea RBO. 

   Lack of adequate office space owned by EEAA 

(current office space is rented by the PSU), 

equipped workshop and appropriate storage 

facilities. 

   Lack of sufficient capacity building programs for 

rangers and cooperating agencies. 

   There is a need to increase environmental 

awareness and understanding of law among 

corresponding agencies.            

Discussed and recommended improvement actions   

Develop an appropriate organizational structure 

for the Unit. The proposed structure should be 

appealing to attract qualified rangers as well as 

establishing a clear career path to ensure 

sustainability of the Unit.  

Develop an official communication and 

coordination mechanisms between various 

agencies. The highest administrative level of the 

concerned agencies (preferably Ministries) should 

concur with proposed mechanisms. 

Implement capacity building events to enhance 

the current staff s capabilities as well as that of 

newcomers. Training fields include, but are not 

limited to, administrative skills; communication 

skills to enable rangers to cooperate with other 

agencies; work planning; time management; 

understanding and enforcement of governing 

laws; environmental awareness and language 

training, namely English, German and Russian as 

the predominant tourists visiting the area speak 

those languages.
