TRIPOLI, July 19 (Xinhua) -- The United Nations Development Program (UNDP) on Friday said it rehabilitated 30 schools in the Libyan capital Tripoli.

The rehabilitation of the schools is part of the UNDP's Stabilization Facility for Libya (SFL), which is supported by 13 international donors as well as the Libyan government, the UNDP said in a statement.

The SFL is currently undertaking 153 development projects in and around Tripoli, the statement said, in order to help local authorities provide basic services for people.

"In addition to the work completed on the 30 schools, the SFL is equipping 65 health centers and 42 more educational facilities. Other projects on the list include improvement of solid waste management, the transportation sector, and water and sanitation services," the statement said.

Due to years of armed conflict and political instability, Libyan authorities have been struggling to provide basic services to the people, mainly proper healthcare and education.
