The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSrelief) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) have launched a 15-month, $5 million program to strengthen the civilian healthcare system in Ukraine, according to the UNDP website.
KSrelief and UNDP have joined forces to launch a $5 million program aimed at strengthening Ukraine's civilian healthcare system. The 15-month initiative will focus on four medical facilities in Kyiv, Odesa, and Dnipropetrovsk regions, addressing priority needs identified with health authorities. The program will cover critical areas such as maternal and newborn health, pediatric intensive care, surgical and trauma care, diagnostics, and emergency patient stabilization.
This includes procuring and installing medical equipment, providing user training, and ensuring safe long-term operation. KSrelief's advisor, Dr. Abdullah Al Rabeeah, emphasized the program's potential to save and improve lives across several Ukrainian regions. The agreement was signed during the 81st session of the UN General Assembly.
