The Saudi Health Sector Fund has shown how healthcare is changing during Ramadan, breaking previous records. More than 4 million individual donations were made, with 47 charitable initiatives and 34 partnerships contributing to this generosity.

Aligned with Saudi Vision 2030, the healthcare sector is working to improve people’s health and create vibrant communities. One key program is the Healthcare Sector Transformation Program, which is driving various initiatives to achieve these goals.

A standout initiative is the Health Endowment Fund, the Kingdom’s first independent healthcare fund. It supports access to healthcare for the most vulnerable and involves the community in helping those in need through partnerships.

To ensure transparency and effectiveness, the fund is working with specialized auditing firms. It’s also partnering with financial experts to manage investments for financial sustainability.

Another important effort is the development of primary healthcare centers. This involves improving infrastructure, upgrading equipment, and using technology to enhance healthcare services and patient experiences.

These initiatives reflect the Fund’s commitment to improving healthcare across the sector and providing swift assistance to those in need. Overall, the fund aims to build a model healthcare endowment that can address health challenges effectively with the help of the community.

The Saudi Ministry of Environment, Water, and Agriculture has launched an electronic service, as part of the Liquid Fuel Displacement Program, which aims to displace up to one million barrels of liquid fuels across the agriculture, industry and utilities sectors by 2030.
The new electronic service enables targeted farm owners to register their requests to connect their agricultural holdings to the electricity grid and reduce reliance on liquid fuel, SPA reported.
The ministry, in cooperation with the Ministry of Energy, the Saudi Electricity Regulatory Authority, the Saudi Electricity Company, and the Agricultural Development Fund, aims to reduce factors affecting the sustainability of the agricultural sector in the Kingdom, and contribute to preserving the environment, in line with the goals of the Kingdom Vision 2030.
