Aktion Deutschland Hilft - Together we speed up help!
Aktion Deutschland Hilft, Germany's Relief Coalition is a union of German relief organisations that can provide rapid and effective aid in the case of large catastrophes and emergency situations abroad.
To further optimise their previously successful work, the participating organisations bring together their many years of experience in humanitarian aid abroad.
In exceptional cases, Aktion Deutschland Hilft is also active at home as for example in 2002 during the flooding of the river Elbe.
Each of the member organisations has respective knowledge and specific abilities to provide relief aid in case of catastrophes.
The varied expertise and abilities of the individual members are bundled for use in the case of wars and conflicts, famines, earthquakes, flooding and other disasters.
The idea of integrating their respective knowledge and specific abilities, and through mutual extension to efficiently bundle measures for aid, unites the continued independent initiators of this mutual campaign.
