Abstract
The importance of the rural community is shaped in Egypt, where more than 57.8% of the population lives. The Egyptian village is the smallest urban environmental unit that has social, cultural and political characteristics different from the city and has an economic base. Therefore, the importance of sustainable environmental planning for green infrastructure appears to improve the rural community and provide it with Health security, social security, food security, poverty eradication, and activating the role of rural women to keep pace with the wheel of development and achieve economic competitiveness. The research addresses the concepts of green infrastructure and procedures for dealing with its challenges to achieve sustainable rural development and enhance the performance of green infrastructure and presents green infrastructure standards and strategies. The research found that the integration between green and gray infrastructure elements in urban areas, as well as the presence of connectivity in the green infrastructure network along traffic paths, works to improve the performance of the green element in rural urban areas, which also enhances their efficiency and enhances the green economy. The research reached a set of indicators for green infrastructure to enhance its performance and overcome challenges from the perspective of the green economy and partnership between non-governmental organizations and the public sector, which leads to formulating a system to activate green infrastructure indicators in achieving sustainable rural development
