Qatar is among the top donor countries to support refugees around the
world, the Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD) has said in a post on
Twitter. An accompanying infographic on voluntary contributions to the
UNHCR – the UN Refugee Agency in 2017 (until October) shows that Qatar
is the 19th top donor globally and the first among Middle Eastern and
Arab countries. Qatar’s voluntary contribution during the period
amounted to $26,804,578, according to the chart. “Qatar (is) one of the
largest donor governments, which co-operates with international
organisations providing relief and support to refugees in the Arab
region and abroad,” the QFFD said.
