Strategy 2027 of Johanniter International Assistance

In 2015, Johanniter International Assistance has started to revise its strategic goals in order to meet the requirements in a time of increasing complex crises and disasters. The result is the Strategy 2025, which defines our thematic core competencies and the approach to our work. All our activities are aligned with two overarching goals: To ensure immediate survival of people after disasters and to strengthen their resilience. They are always at the centre of our projects at all levels.

Since 2020, we have been reviewing this strategy and developing it further together with all country offices and partner organisations. While our 2025 strategy still focused predominantly on humanitarian work, we now want to give greater consideration to transitional aid and development cooperation, as well as reorganise humanitarian aid in emergency situations. The programme objectives continue to encompass the three main pillars of International Assistance: humanitarian aid in emergency situations, health and securing livelihoods. The latter, in particular, are increasingly dependent on the effects of climate change. Adaptation to climate change and disaster preparedness will be given more weight in the future.
