Grant Description

On December 7, 2023, the government of Yemen and the China International Development Cooperation Agency (CIDCA) signed an Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement (ETCA), which included a RMB 100 million donation by China to Yemen to support humanitarian aid and development projects. The projects supported by this ETCA are unspecified.

📋 Staff Comments

1. Although this ETCA was signed by a representative of CIDCA rather than MOFCOM, the source explicitly identifies it as an “Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement.” However,, ETCAs can involve either interest-free loans (typically issued by MOFCOM) or grants (often administered by CIDCA), so long as the agreement is formally titled as an ETCA. Therefore, this project is appropriately coded as an umbrella ETCA with a grant funding instrument, a status of “Pipeline: Commitment,” and MOFCOM listed as the funding agency.
