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.

World Food Day: Climate change and Corona pandemic tighten global hunger
14.10.2021
The number of people suffering from hunger continues to rise worldwide. This is due to new and ongoing conflicts, the Corona pandemic and the noticeable consequences of climate change. With many of our projects we improve the food situation.
The Corona pandemic has once again highlighted the importance of hand washing. We therefore implemented additional hygiene measures, including in Uganda. Jane Nakanwagi talks about the current situation in the country.

Cambodia: Leap in income thanks to climate smart agriculture techniques
19.08.2021
Thanks to training farmers in climate-smart, yield-increasing agriculture methodologies, they were able to increase their agricultural yields while saving money at the same time.
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.
We integrate preventive hygiene measures into our health projects. We also support the construction, maintenance and access to adequate drinking water and sanitation facilities.
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.
