KSrelief Enhances Relief Efforts to Empower Vulnerable Groups in Gaza
GAZA — The Saudi aid agency KSrelief has launched an economic empowerment project for vulnerable groups and persons with disabilities in Deir Al‑Balah in the Gaza Strip.
The launch was attended by representatives from the UN Development Programme, the UN Population Fund, and the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, along with other local and international organizations.
The project will train more than 1,000 beneficiaries across eight vocational and digital tracks in its first phase. Upon completion, participants will receive a diploma certificate and professional toolkits to support entry into the labor market and improve income opportunities.
The initiative builds on Saudi Arabia’s ongoing efforts, through KSrelief, to support economic recovery and strengthen the capacities of young men and women in Gaza.
Since its launch in May 2015, KSrelief has implemented 154 projects in Palestine at a total cost of more than $540 million. The programs cover food security, early recovery, water, sanitation and hygiene, health, camp coordination, education, protection, emergency aid, and nutrition.
