Alwaleed Philanthropies “Global” Partners with the Saudi Development and Reconstruction Program (SDRPY) and UN-Habitat to Implement Housing Projects in Yemen

Alwaleed Philanthropies “Global” joins forces with the Saudi Development and Reconstruction Program for Yemen (SDRPY) and the UN-Habitat to provide sustainable housing solutions to vulnerable internally displaced persons and returnees in Aden City. The project aimed to assist 8,736 families and was a part of the continuous efforts by Alwaleed Philanthropies "Global" to help those in need.

The goal of the initiative is to support the implementation of housing projects in Yemen by offering a sustainable resolution for vulnerable families of internally displaced persons and returnees in Aden City, with a focus on enhancing their living conditions. Furthermore, the project seeks to promote social cohesion among the displaced people, returnees, and the host communities across four districts of the governorate by renovating damaged housing.

In 2023, we achieved significant milestones. We completed the construction of 320 houses, offering much-needed homes to many families. Additionally, we built an extra 50 houses within the same project, showing our efficiency and commitment to meeting housing needs. These efforts also led to the creation of 4,616 job opportunities, contributing to economic empowerment within our communities.

Through this initiative, we are not just constructing houses; we are building hope and transforming lives in Aden, Yemen. By providing sustainable housing solutions to vulnerable families of internally displaced persons and returnees. Together, we are creating a brighter future for those who have endured displacement and uncertainty, offering them stability and the promise of a better tomorrow in Yemen.
