Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia has been a key partner to UNHCR for more than three decades, working through institutions like the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSRelief), the Saudi Fund for Development (SFD), and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA). Together, we’ve helped bring critical support to millions of refugees and displaced people around the world.
Beyond funding, Saudi Arabia actively promotes long-term engagement with forcibly displaced communities. This includes strengthening partnerships – particularly between the public and private sectors – to help refugees rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.
UNHCR has been present in the Kingdom since 1987. Together, we are building a future where displaced families are supported, protected, and empowered.
