Fase 1:

Alívio de Catástrofes

A Global Empowerment Mission respondeu, na primeira fase, ao alívio de catástrofes, fornecendo sistemas de purificação de água às pessoas mais afectadas pelos ciclones tropicais em Moçambique.

A tempestade destrutiva causou danos catastróficos, e uma crise humanitária em Moçambique, Zimbabué e Malawi, deixando mais de 1.300 pessoas mortas e muitas mais desaparecidas.

A Global Empowerment Mission estabeleceu uma parceria com a Local Development Catalyst Network (LDCN) para fornecer a clínicas de saúde locais, líderes de aldeia, e escolas, sistemas de purificação de água para diminuir a probabilidade de propagação de mais doenças.
