Miljoenen mensen getroffen door deze vreselijke ramp in Zuid-Oost Azië. Gelukkig is het Rode Kruis ter plaatse om direct hulp te verlenen. Essentieel hierbij is onze partnerschap met Ministerie van Buitenlandse Zaken waardoor we ongeoormerkte gelden hebben die nu direct en flexibel ingezet kunnen worden.

As a strong believer in humanity, I so much admire the work of Hiba Qasas which is all about the human connection, inclusivity, understanding each other even when so hurt by conflict. The principles for peace are paving the way for future generations to live together.

Inspiration from the countries where the meteorological organizations and the Red Cross organizations work together to prepare for disasters, send out warning signals early and act quickly so more people and livelihoods are saved from disasters.

An appeal to European leaders from a lifetime humanitarian: as you discuss boosting defense spending please don’t overlook humanitarian aid, which faces devastating cuts. Aid, too, is about keeping your countries safe. Aid promotes stability. And a stable world is a safer world.
