Over one million people foresee humanitarian assistance focused on health and hygiene as the United Kingdom launches a 3.4 million pound finance package through the Red Cross. Meanwhile, a 2.4 million pound is set to deliver international Procurement Orders with its counterpart in the UK.
Nearly 10 vehicles have been donated by the FCDO Civil Society Strengthening Programme (CSSP) during a ceremony that saw the attendance of UK Ambassador to Ethiopia, Darren Welch and representatives of the African Union.
The ambassador expressed his sentiment that the financial package pave the way where vulnerable communities may get access to the desired services.
The support for the UK comes from a program aimed at alleviating conflict and drought-ridden areas, which is indicated as one of the United Kingdom’s top priorities in Africa.
