Donors pledge $105M to support Somali refugees in Kenya

Donors have pledged 105 million U.S. dollars to support Somali refugees in Kenya and help them voluntarily return home.
The UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)-backed conference saw representatives from over 40 countries and organizations pledge to provide training and job opportunities for 10,000 returnees in Somalia.
During the pledging conference hosted by the European Commission and UNHCR in Geneva, the world committed resources to a plan of action designed to improve socio-economic conditions in Somalia and camps in Kenya.
The EU also committed 68 million dollars to support the course.
