As humanitarian team lead at Kerk in Actie I’m dedicated to various emergency projects through both our local partners and Giro 555/Samenwerkende Hulporganisaties (SHO). My specific regional focus is on the Middle-East.

My aim is to further build up the humanitarian structure and portfolio of KiA’s partners worldwide. Kerk in Actie offers emergency relief to save lives, rebuilds livelihoods in crisis affected areas and aims to prevent and mitigate disasters by strengthening people’s resilience and preparedness to respond to disasters.

We work with both our ACT Alliance partners and local churches; an important aspect in our aim to reach the most vulnerable and building up their resilience.
