'Aden Ajmal' Campaign Supports Fight Against Pandemic

"Aden Ajmal" campaign, implemented by the Saudi Program for Development and Reconstruction of Yemen (SDRPY), contributed to supporting health sectors in confronting the novel coronavirus. Modern laboratories were equipped in hospitals and medical centers, also medical equipment and medicines were provided.

SDRPY worked on raising the sector’s efficiency, given that it is currently on the frontline against the pandemic. It also trained Yemeni cadres to provide medical care for patients. One of the most important solutions to mitigate coronavirus's impact and the risk of it spreading is maintaining development projects that complement the educational, humanitarian, and relief work of organizations and other entities.

Aden Ajmal campaign managed to remove accumulated garbage by 531 percent from the temporary capital. It also enhanced the capability and efficiency of the “Cleaning and Improving the City of Aden Fund” by removing 32 percent of the garbage in the province.

The campaign targeted seven regions out of 10, in response to the emergency cases mainly ensuing from rainwater and floods that hit Aden a couple of times.

The emergency plan was concluded by removing 10,515 cubic meters of remnants and draining 7,475 cubic meters of rainwater and floods.

The campaign also contributed to combatting diseases and pandemics in Aden, in addition to stemming the spread of COVID-19 via other procedures and precautionary measures.
