Sudan to benefit from a US100 million grant to boost COVID-19 Response

The Government of Sudan signed a grant agreement of US$100 million to boost the country’s COVID-19 response and expand vaccination coverage in the country. This is the first grant from the International Development Association (IDA) following the arrears clearance on March 25, 2021, and nearly 30 years of disengagement with IDA. Giving an interview, Sudan’s Minister of Health, Omer Elnagieb said:

We are extremely delighted to partner with the World Bank Group  in this very important project. We are confident that with this additional financing in place, we will be able to boost our COVID-19 response including expanding vaccination coverage. Nonetheless, this will feed into pandemic preparedness aspects as well, as we plan to address some of the most outstanding system gaps
