WFP
CAIRO – The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has received a contribution package totalling US$1.5 million from the Government of the Republic of Korea to help provide food assistance for conflict-affected Syrians in Jordan and Turkey.
WFP has also received US$1 million from the Republic of Korea for the second instalment of its 2020-2021 contribution to Lebanon – that is part of a US$3.8 million package WFP received from Korea in December 2020 to provide assistance for Syrians inside their country and in Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey.
In Turkey, US$1 million from Korea will help WFP equip Syrian refugees with the skills they need to find job opportunities and become self-reliant through vocational and paid on-the-job training. These funds will also represent a lifeline for approximately 52,000 refugees living in six camps across south-eastern Turkey through a monthly assistance of TRY 120 (US$17) per person.
