The sum is part of the EU’s contributions to the Disaster Relief Emergency Fund
(DREF) which was established by the International Federation of Red Cross and
Red Crescent Societies (IFRC).
The money will be allocated directly to more than 18,000 residents in
flood-hardest hit areas in the Central Highlands provinces of Dak Lak and Lam
Dong and the Mekong Delta province of Kien Giang.
The aid packages include blankets, mosquito nets, kitchenware, water buckets and
water purification powder.
In addition, cash will be provided for the most vulnerable families to help them
buy necessities and stabilise their lives.
The EU and its member nations are the world’s biggest donors of humanitarian
relief aid. Through the European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid
Operations (ECHO), the EU has annually supported over 120 million victims of
conflicts and natural disasters.
