<dc:title>Hikmat Abu Zayd</dc:title>
<dc:description>Hikmat Abu Zayd (حكمت أبو زيد‎) was an Egyptian politician and academic born in the village of Shayk Daud sometime between 1922 and 1923. She obtained a license (Master’s-equivalent) in history from Cairo University in 1940 and a teaching certificate the following year. Abu Zayd then went on to study at the University of St Andrews, completing a Master of Arts in Education in 1950 and a PhD in Behavioral Psychology from the University of London in 1957.  

Abu Zayd was the first woman cabinet minister in Egypt and the second woman in the Arab world to ever hold a ministerial role. She was appointed as the Minister of Social Affairs by President Gamal Abdel Nasser in 1962 and served as minister until Nasser’s death in 1970. Abu Zayd was also named the Arab Socialist Union’s Coordinator for Women’s Activities in 1963 and throughout the 1980s, was the leader of the Egyptian National Front.  

Hikmat Abu Zayd died in Cairo, Egypt on 30 July 2011. </dc:description>
