RIYADH — The King Salman Center for Relief and Humanitarian Affairs (KSRelief) signed on Monday a $15 million (SR56 million) joint cooperation agreement with the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) to implement a number of projects in Yemen. The projects, which will include the shelter, education, and camp coordination sectors, will be implemented in the governorates of Ma’rib, Aden, Lahij, and Hadramawt, and will help 224,918 beneficiaries. The agreement, which was signed virtually, is being funded as part of Saudi Arabia’s contribution to the UN Yemen Humanitarian Response Plan 2020. Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabeeah, the supervisor general of KSRelief, signed the agreement on behalf of the center, while IOM Director General, Antonio Vitorino, signed on behalf of his organization. The agreement aims to provide emergency assistance and response to internally displaced persons (IDPs), improving their access to educational services, supporting the continuity of these services, and helping Yemen’s education sector meet the needs of IDPs suffering from the effects of their displacement. This agreement is just one way in which KSRelief is implementing vital aid projects in many countries, including Yemen, in partnership with the IOM. Saudi Arabia represented by KSRelief, provides comprehensive, impartial assistance throughout Yemen and around the world, serving all in need through a wide range of humanitarian and relief projects. — SG
