Kuwait Fund for Arab Economic Development (KFAED) on Thursday signed an agreement with UNICEF whereby the Kuwaiti fund would give an additional grant worth USD 340,000 as a contribution to financing a water project in Gaza Strip.
KFAED said in a statement that the project envisages securing water to more than 280,000 people and setting up sewage networks.
The accord was signed by KFAED’s Director General Marwan Al-Ghanem and UNICEF’s bureau representative in the Gulf Al-Tayeb Adam.
The grant is a follow-up to a USD three million worth of grant the fund has given to UNICEF to finance the venture.
