International Trade & Development - Jeddah, Makkah Province, Saudi Arabia
Lives and Livelihoods Fund (LLF) is a joint vision of the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) and other development cooperation partners aimed at raising the poorest out of poverty in IsDB member countries. The LLF is the largest development initiative of its kind in the Middle East and serves 33 IsDB's least developed member countries and lower-middle-income member countries, including #Muslim communities. Our mission is to break down the barriers that prevent individuals, organisations, and governments in the lowest income countries from obtaining the resources that empower them to lift themselves out of poverty. We focus on three key areas: health, agriculture, and basic infrastructure. From controlling infectious disease and strengthening primary healthcare to increasing productivity of smallholder farmers and bringing electrification, sanitation, and financial inclusion to rural areas, our projects are creating sustainable change for good for millions of the world's most disadvantaged people. By investing thoughtfully and prudently, we secure their future today, as well as the future of every generation that follows. The LLF donor partners working with the IsDB on this impactful initiative are: • Abu Dhabi Fund for Development • Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation • UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office • Islamic Solidarity Fund for Development • King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre • Qatar Fund for Development
