Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Kits For Migrant Workers

IOM Kuwait received a donation from a private sector partner to provide personal protective equipment (PPE) kits to migrants, in support of the government of Kuwait’s continuous efforts and response to contain the COVID-19 virus.

Through this generous donation, IOM provided PPE kits to over 4000 migrant workers, focusing on the inclusion of vulnerable migrants and covering all 6 governorates in the State of Kuwait, including residents at the government-run shelter for female foreign workers. The initiative was in cooperation with a Civil Society Organization and community volunteering groups.

The International Organization for Migration takes pride in its successful partnership with private sector partners, government key stakeholders and non-governmental and civil society organizations. With the support provided by various entities, IOM is enabled to respond more efficiently and effectively to the needs of foreign workers in the State of Kuwait.
