Khaled Hassan Al Ali, Director of Projects and External Aid at SCI, emphasised the organisation's focus on long-term, sustainable development. 'Our goal is to implement projects that make a lasting impact,' he said.
'The water network we're constructing in Tajikistan will be vital for these families, offering them stability and essential support. This project reflects the UAE's commitment to aiding vulnerable communities and advancing global development. It is part of our ongoing mission to ensure that people in drought-affected areas have reliable access to clean water.'
