About Us

The Cairo Youth Behavior Research Institute (CYBRI) is dedicated to studying and addressing the behavioral and psychological development of children and adolescents aged 6 to 20. Founded with the vision to create a better understanding of youth behavior, CYBRI provides critical insights into the societal and personal factors that shape young people's lives.

We conduct research that informs policy and shapes educational systems and intervention programs aimed at supporting youth in all stages of their development. Our mission is to create a world where every young person has the support and tools needed to become a responsible, resilient, and confident adult.

Our Goals

CYBRI's goals are focused on contributing to research around youth behavior and providing actionable findings that improve the quality of life for children and teenagers. Our core objectives include:

• Conducting empirical research on behavioral development in different social, cultural, and educational environments.
• Partnering with schools, communities, and organizations to apply our research in real-world settings.
• Developing intervention programs that support youth mental health, social skills, and emotional resilience.
• Offering insights into how societal issues, such as inequality and family dynamics, impact youth behavior and decision-making.
