(MENAFN- Saudi Press Agency) Paris, February 16, 2023, SPA -- King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) delegation headed by the Assistant Supervisor General of KSrelief for Planning and Development, Dr. Aqeel bin Jamaan Al-Ghamdi, participated in the Global Meeting of Development Cooperation Providers, organized by the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) at the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's (OECD) in Paris, yesterday.
During the meeting, Dr. Al-Ghamdi delivered a speech where he explained that the world is facing an unprecedented phase of multiple crises, including natural disasters, epidemics, armed conflicts, food insecurity, widespread poverty, and irregular migration.
He drew attention to the fact that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia overcame the challenges of humanitarian work by supporting the localization of aid work and strengthening national and local capabilities to continue to work and provide humanitarian response to their communities, as the Kingdom contributed to the support of international as well as local organizations in Yemen, Sudan, Niger, Pakistan, Lebanon, and many other countries.
Dr. Al-Ghamdi noted that the Kingdom cooperates with 80 partners to deliver humanitarian efforts in Yemen, including 41 national and local partners who are provided with funding to respond to humanitarian needs, which helped arrange for a faster humanitarian response to focus on beneficiaries at a reasonable cost, stressing that the Kingdom supported joint funding initiatives with donors for the humanitarian response.
He added, 'The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has always responded promptly and successfully to humanitarian crises resulting from conflicts and natural disasters in many countries'.
