Grant Description
On May 15, 2017, representatives of China's Ministry of Commerce signed with representatives of IOM an agreement for the provision of USD $1 million to assist internally displaced persons (IDPs), vulnerable communities and returnees in Somalia.
On July 5, 2017, the Chinese Government donated $1 million through the International Organization for Migration (IOM), a UN migration agency, to the Somali government to meet emergency needs for shelter and non-food items in Somalia (UNOCHA: Financial Tracking Service Flow ID: 162390). IOM was responsible for implementing the project.
The Chinese Ambassador to Somalia, Qin Jian, Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management, Mohamed Moalim, and other officials attended the ceremony. IOM reports that this aid reached over 15,000 people and supported the 2017 Somalia Humanitarian Response Plan.
It also was intended to provide lifesaving aid to vulnerable populations in areas affected by the ongoing drought and displacement within Somalia. This project is completed.
