GEDAREF — King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) has signed a joint cooperation agreement with the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) to enhance the water and sanitation sector in the Kassala and Gedaref states of Sudan.
The agreement, valued at $3.5 million, was signed by Dr. Hana Omar, Director of Partnerships and International Relations at KSrelief, and Abdullah Al-Dardari, Assistant Secretary-General of UNDP and Director of the Regional Bureau for Arab States.
