Some contexts fall out of the spotlight even though the humanitarian impact is severe.

Most of our top underfunded operations are in Africa, where needs total more than CHF 300 million. Conflict and violence continue to drive displacement, disrupt health care and erode access to essential services across the continent.

Afghanistan also remains one of the most underfunded contexts, where half of the population depends on humanitarian aid. Our teams work alongside the Afghan Red Crescent to keep hospitals running, provide physical rehabilitation, and deliver assistance in hard-to-reach areas.

Other contexts, such as Syria, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Colombia and Venezuela, highlight the same challenge: large-scale needs in environments that risk slipping out of international focus. In these places, our work ranges from emergency health care and repairing water systems to supporting displaced communities and helping families of missing persons.
