The Saudi Development Fund, according to a bilateral agreement, will allocate $10.9 million for a project to create new preschool education institutions. The money will go to finance 48 projects.

A program is also being developed to open 200 kindergartens based on PPP, the estimated cost is $53 million. OPEC and the Islamic Development Bank will allocate money for it.
