DAMASCUS, (ST)- Syria and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) on Sunday discussed boosting cooperation through implementing joint projects in accordance with the priorities of both sides.

A meeting held on Sunday between Minister of Local Administration and Environment Hussein Makhlouf and the Regional Director of the UN Development Program (UNDP) Samuel Rizk and the accompanying delegation, focused on the issue of implementing small and micro-sized enterprises to support displaced families.

Makhlouf, who heads the Higher Committee for Relief, talked about the committee’s work mechanism and role in meeting the humanitarian and relief needs of the displaced families and the people who return to their areas after the army cleared these areas of terrorism.

 He said the committee and its branches in the Syrian provinces provided necessary facilitations to humanitarian aid and relief workers from national non-government and international organizations with the purpose of guaranteeing the arrival of humanitarian aid convoys to both safe and restive areas.

“Cooperation in carrying out small and micro-sized enterprises to support displaced families will be very helpful, particularly because the government accords great attention to the development of rural areas in all Syrian provinces,” the minister said.

Cooperation to support work in industrial areas and to rehabilitate the damaged infrastructure was also  a topic of discussion.

Rizk, on his part, stressed the importance of cooperation in humanitarian and relief activities and in carrying out infrastructure projects, saying that the UNDP is ready to support the country’s services sector and back the small and micro-sized enterprises to help the people affected by terrorism improve their living conditions.
