An agreement was signed here today to implement a project on rural access to education in the governorates of Hadhramaut, Shabwa, Al-Mahra, and Lahj, with a bilateral contribution from the Saudi Program for the Development and Reconstruction of Yemen and the Aoun Foundation for Development, in the presence of the Minister of Planning and International Cooperation Dr. Waed Badhib, Minister of Education Dr. Tariq Al-Akbari and the General Supervisor of SPDRY Ambassador Mohammed Al Jaber.

The Saudi program was represented by its Assistant General Supervisor, Engineer Hassan Al-Attas, while the Aoun Development Foundation was represented by its executive director Dr. Abdullah Othman
