Grant Description

On April 26, 2011, the government of the People's Republic of China donated 5000 tons of rice to Timor-Leste's Ministry of Social Solidarity by the request of its government.

The donation will assist the country's food shortage, due to local agricultural problems caused by climate change and poor harvests. Loan applications and disbursements are still being received and processed as the projects continue to evolve. Ongoing monitoring and evaluation are in place to ensure project continuity.
