NEW YORK, USA: As part of its contribution to the activities
surrounding the recent 74th session the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA)
at UN headquarters in New York, King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre
(KSrelief) held an exhibition, entitled “Saudi Arabia’s Efforts for Refugees
Around the World. The purpose of the exhibit was to highlight KSrelief’s work
on behalf of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to alleviate the suffering of people
in need globally.
Visitors to the exhibition included Ibrahim Al Assaf, Saudi
Minister of Foreign Affairs, Adel Al Jubeir, Saudi Arabia’s Minister of State
for Foreign Affairs, Khalid bin Ahmed Al Khalifa, Bahrain's Minister of Foreign
Affairs, Mohammad Al Hadhrami, Yemen's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Abdallah
Yahya Al Mouallimi, Permanent Representative of Saudi Arabia to the UN, Abdul
Latif bin Rashid Al Zayani, the Secretary General of the Gulf Cooperation
Council (GCC), Pierre Krähenbühl, UNRWA Commissioner-General, a number of
ministers from participating countries, and other officials from UN and
international organizations.
The one-week exhibition included a transparent screen
display showcasing the various sectors in which KSrelief works. A large,
five-by-three-meter interactive wall screen featured a map of the world showing
the 44 beneficiary countries served by KSrelief; visitors could click on each
country to learn more about the center's work there.
A 75-inch interactive screen enabled visitors to learn more
about the center's qualitative and sustainable projects while browsing the
center's website and volunteer platforms. The public could also choose to make
online donations at the exhibit using the Saudi Aid Platform to support
projects and countries served by KSrelief; this platform not only accepts
donations, but also provides viewers with accurate and reliable information
about all of the Kingdom’s foreign aid, and includes some human interest
stories inspired by the programs.
