We are on the ground, working closely with our local partners and the Venezuelan Order of Malta to deliver life-saving emergency relief. To support the response, we have made an initial allocation of EUR 250,000. Our emergency relief team has arrived in the affected area and has begun operations.
In La Guaira, the Venezuelan Order of Malta is providing medical care to injured people and distributing drinking water and clothing to those affected by the disaster. Together with our local partner organization, we also are deploying fully equipped mobile clinic units over a period of three months to ensure access to healthcare in the hardest-hit areas of Caracas, La Guaira, and Miranda.
In addition, we are sending medicines and medical supplies from Germany to help address the acute shortages reported in the crisis-affected region. Furthermore, two medical specialists from our emergency Pool of Experts have joined an Emergency Medical Team of Johanniter-Unfall-Hilfe, which traveled to the earthquake-affected area on 30 June 2026.
Since 2020, we have been supporting people in need in Venezuela through our local partners, particularly in the areas of health and nutrition.
