What is IORWD?
It stands for Saudi Arabia's International Organization for Relief, Welfare and Development, whose current director-general is Dr. Taha Al-Khateeb. IORWD works hand in hand with the UN World Food Program to make life easier for struggling refugee families in various parts of the globe. Al-Khateeb says the principle behind IORWD’s role is to teach families “to fish” rather than provide them with fish every day.
