Humanitarian aid in Haiti

Germany and its partners

On January 12, 2010, a magnitude 7.0 earthquake devastates Haiti. Over 220,000 people die, over 300,000 are injured and one and a half million are left homeless. It is one of the worst natural disasters of modern times - and it hits the poorest country in the western world of all places. All state structures collapse. The disaster triggers a wave of international solidarity.

The German government reacts within a few hours: Needs-based aid is provided immediately and without bureaucracy. BROADVIEW TV shows in vivid images how the German Red Cross is carrying out immediate measures on behalf of the Federal Foreign Office to alleviate the worst of the suffering.
