400 projects were funded worldwide

Terre des Hommes recorded an earnings result of a good 48.7 million euros for 2023. The income comes mainly from donations of 22.9 million euros and co -financing, mostly on the part of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, in the amount of a good 22.7 million euros. Compared to 2022, in which Terre des Hommes received numerous donations for Ukraine, the donation income dropped by five million euros in 2023, while the co -financing rose by nine million.

"Thanks to this support, Terre des Hommes promoted a total of 401 partner projects to strengthen disadvantaged and exploited children in 47 countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America and Europe," said Joshua Hofert, board spokesman for Terre des Hommes. »A major role in the donation revenue once again played humanitarian aid. For this purpose, Terre of the Hommes received 4.9 million euros, for example for the help after the devastating earthquake in Turkey and Syria. ”There, Terre of the Hommes partner organizations were able to do construction work and ensure that the families have a temporary roof over their heads and the children get school lessons.

"In view of the numerous humanitarian crises in Sudan, on the horn of Africa and in the Sahel, however, we need significantly more means to provide help there too," said Joshua Hofert. “Because we are in the middle of a global crisis of armed conflicts, war -related escape movements and the destructive consequences of climate change. The Federal Government seems to ignore these global crises in the federal budget by wanting to shorten the funds for both development cooperation and humanitarian aid for 2025 by around one billion euros each. From many years of experience, the federal government should actually know that development policy and humanitarian aid are important instruments in order to work on peace, democracy and compliance with human rights even in crisis -like regions. «
