UNHCR Hails Al-Azhar’s Efforts to Help Refugees
The program was held in four stages starting from January this year, according to al-Wafd news agency.
It was organized with the aim of providing support to the most vulnerable groups in society and assisting them in the face of climate change consequences.
Khaled Khalifa, a UNHCR representative in the Middle East, hailed Al-Azhar’s contribution to the program.
He also underlined the important role of Islamic centers in supporting refugees and others in need.
Khalifa further said that the program helped to shed more light on the needs of refugees and attracting support to meet their urgent needs.
Nazir Ayyad, an official with Al-Azhar, said the center’s contribution to the program comes due to its global mission and its emphasis on promoting Islamic values and enhancing solidarity among all human beings, which is a common message of all religions.
He added that peace and stability cannot be achieved without empathy and helping one another.
