Fase 1:

Soccorso in caso di disastri

Global Empowerment Mission ha risposto nella prima fase, quella dei soccorsi, fornendo sistemi di purificazione dell'acqua alle persone più colpite dai cicloni tropicali in Mozambico.

La tempesta distruttiva ha causato danni catastrofici e una crisi umanitaria in Mozambico, Zimbabwe e Malawi, lasciando più di 1.300 morti e molti altri dispersi.

Global Empowerment Mission ha collaborato con il Local Development Catalyst Network (LDCN) per fornire alle cliniche sanitarie locali, ai capi villaggio e alle scuole dei sistemi di purificazione dell'acqua per diminuire la probabilità di una maggiore diffusione delle malattie.

Impatto GEM:

Sui terreni 10 giorni dopo il disastro
Ha camminato con oltre una tonnellata di aiuti attraverso paludi, fiumi e campi d'erba per chilometri
Più di 30 abitanti del villaggio hanno aiutato a portare rifornimenti a villaggi remoti
Fornitura di sistemi di filtraggio di cibo e acqua
Sostenuto programmi di prevenzione del colera in diversi villaggi trascurati
