An emergency food relief project was signed by the German Consul-General, Holger Ziegeler, and the CEO of Balochistan Rural Support Programme (BRSP) Dr Shahnawaz Khan to provide food aid for 1,000 families for two months in Lasbela District, Balochistan.
After the signing ceremony, the Consul-General remarked that the project will help flood-stricken families with their immediate nutrition needs and allow them to focus on other pressing issues.
The funds were made available by the German Federal Foreign Office’s Humanitarian Assistance on appeal from the Consulate-General. The German Government is working closely with Pakistani authorities, international organizations and NGOs on further assistance.
Consul General remarked: “This will help flood-stricken families with their immediate nutrition needs and allow them to focus on other pressing issues.” Dr Shahnawaz added: “We appreciate the generous support of the people of Germany! The disaster is so extensive that GoP and NGOs need the help of the international community as well so that we can address rehabilitation through education, health and clean drinking water.”
