Aga Khan Foundation donates 1.5 million euros for reconstruction of areas affected by bad weather
The Aga Khan Foundation will donate 1.5 million euros to support the reconstruction of areas affected by bad weather, partially conditioning the use of funds for the rebuilding of schools, support for students and families, and the creation of microforests. The Ismaili Imamat and the Aga Khan Foundation, based in Portugal and led by Prince Rahim Aga Khan (Aga Khan V), aim to assist the most affected regions of the country following recent storms. The financial contribution will be partially directed towards supporting students and their families, reinforcing educational structures, and creating green spaces to stabilize the ecosystem. The implementation of the aid program will be coordinated closely with the government and local authorities to ensure effective support for the communities most impacted by the severe weather. The Aga Khan Foundation is part of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN), which works to improve the living conditions of vulnerable populations, regardless of their origin, gender, or religion. The Economic Minister reported that four thousand companies have already reported damages of nearly one billion euros, with sixteen fatalities and many injuries and displacements due to the storms.
