Friday, 10 May 2019 13:35
The International Finance Corporation (IFC) announces a €14 million ($15.7 million support) credit line and technical support for the education sector in emerging countries.
These supports will be provided to KMR Holding Pédagogique (KMR), a private higher education platform that will use the resources to boost its activities in Senegal and Morocco.
KMR plans to open a medical faculty in these two countries to boost the teaching offers in the health sector.
“IFC’s investment will help us boost our reputation as a major player in the education sector, the health sub-sector particularly,” said Mohamed Kabbaj, director of KMR.
