The Afghan Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation has signed four memorandums of understanding (MoUs) with international and domestic aid agencies to assist thousands of displaced, returnee and needy families across Afghanistan, the Ministry said in a statement on Thursday.
The total sum of the signed MoUs reached more than 7.3 million US dollars, benefiting over 860 families and 37,718 people in the provinces of Kabul, Herat, Farah, Nangarhar, Nuristan and Kunar, the statement said.
The agencies will provide cash, shelters, technical and vocational training and solar electricity to the said people, it said.
In February, the ministry signed MoUs with leading aid agencies aimed at assisting families of returnees in the western provinces of Herat, Badghis, Farah and southern Kandahar.
The Afghan interim government has called on local and international organizations to invest in the country and help create job opportunities.Â
