Air freight express
Aviation Sans Frontières Belgium manages the mobilisation, packaging and airfreighting of medicines within hours after a disaster through a partnership with International Health Partners (IHP).
This NGO ensures the availability of medical kits that will be used by medical NGOs, operational in the disaster area, pre-selected by IHP.
IHP centralises donations of medicines and medical equipment from large pharmaceutical companies and repackages them into kits for treatment (with several types of medicines).
" 1 euro = 6 euros "
For every euro you donate, 10 euros worth of medicines are made available to the victims of a disaster.
This rapid response mechanism to disasters has been activated in the following situations, for example :
- Air freight of medicines from the IHP Foundation for the NGO ANERA for the care of victims of the explosion at the port of Beirut in LEBANON, 2020.
- Air freight of medicines from the IHP Foundation for the NGO ANERA for the care of victims of the bombings in PALESTINE, 2021.
- Air freight of medicines from the IHP Foundation for the NGO MERCY CORPS for the care of victims of the war in Tigray in ETHIOPIA, 2021.
- Air freight of medicines from the IHP foundation for the NGO TERRE in HAITI, 2021.
- Air freight of medicines from the IHP foundation for the NGO PROJECT HOPE, in the context of the war in Ukraine in 2022.
