Text noch nicht dynamisch!!! Die "Regenbogennation" Südafrika hat
eine bewegte Geschichte mit Rassentrennung und Befreiung von der Apartheid hinter sich. Als
politischer und wirtschaftlicher Riese in der Region des Südlichen Afrika spricht Südafrika auch
ein gewichtiges Wort in der Weltpolitik mit, zu Hause steht das Land aber vor immensen sozialen
Aufgaben.

Ukraine: "Hope, that the world has not forgotten them"
Johanniter and its partner NEW DAWN are working together in the Kherson region to provide the necessities of life to displaced people and those who have remained in the villages.
There ain't no rest for the people in Lebanon. The war in Ukraine is a danger for the local people - even though there are almost 2,000 kilometres between Kiev and Beirut.
The difficult economic situation in Lebanon also leads to a deterioration in health care. Johanniter therefore continues to provide medical care for 30,000 Syrian refugees and vulnerable Lebanese in the Bekaa Valley.
The climate change has a particularly significant impact on Cambodia's population, as 80% of its population lives in rural areas. They are particularly dependent on agriculture and natural resources.
After the earthquake, Johanniter continued to provide medical aid in the particularly hard-hit Spera district in the Khost province. In addition, urgently needed relief supplies will be distributed in the coming week.

Our Sectors
Clean Water, Sanitation and Hygiene
We integrate preventive hygiene measures into our health projects. We also support the construction, maintenance and access to adequate drinking water and sanitation facilities.
We support basic medical care with a special focus on mother-child health and on particularly vulnerable groups. Preventive measures reduce diseases and mortality rates in the medium and long term.
Everyone should have access at all times to safe and adequate food that meets their needs and enables them to live a healthy life. This is the basis for earning an income of their own.
Johanniter International Assistance aims to involve local actors more closely in the humanitarian system and give them a more prominent role in it. This is why the partner approach plays an important role in our projects.
