The Saudi Development and Reconstruction Program for Yemen (SDRPY) signed a joint cooperation agreement with Saudi Arabia and the Yemeni government on the development and reconstruction of Yemen.

The deal was signed by Supervisor of the Saudi Program for the Development and Reconstruction of Yemen and Saudi Ambassador to Yemen Mohammed bin Saeed Al Jaber and Yemen's Minister of Planning and International Cooperation Najib al-Auj at the SDRPY headquarters in Riyadh.

The agreement is part of the cooperation between Saudi Arabia and Yemen and the reinforcement of ties between the fraternal countries to provide and implement development and reconstruction projects and services in Yemen.

The SDRPY was established in May 2018 by a royal decree issued by Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz to contribute with international donors and the World Bank in developing and reconstructing Yemen.

The SDRPY projects cover the health, education, energy and agriculture sectors. They have also tackled fishery resources, water, dams, roads, airports, government and residential buildings.
