Malteser International are the international humanitarian relief agency of the Sovereign Order of Malta. For over 60 years, they have been standing by people affected by poverty, disease, conflict, and disaster – to help them to lead a healthy life with dignity.

In 2020, Malteser International reached vulnerable people in 32 countries through 138 development and humanitarian aid projects. The Corona pandemic and advancing climate change have dramatically worsened the situation for people in need: In many of our 32 project countries, development progress of two decades is in danger of being lost.
