People joining hands how to#
Utilizing this virtual space, we are able to engage and reach a global community with the goal of bridging both the disability and international exchange communities together in order to ensure more people with disabilities know about the benefits, scholarships, and opportunities of international exchange and to share recommendations for international educators on how to best recruit, support, and plan for access throughout all exchange programs. The Joining Hands Virtual Symposium offered another virtual gathering on the topic of disability inclusion in international exchange. Stayed turned for this summer's session recordings! What: Visit the official Joining Hands Virtual Symposium website for this summers program and also highlights and programming from last summer, which includes session recordings, session materials, and virtual accessibility resources. This is a humanitarian emergency, and one that requires us to join hands for an internationally coordinated relief effort in response.The NCDE hosted its 2021 Joining Hands Virtual Symposium on disability inclusion in international exchange from July 28-August 4th and it concluded in its hopes for continued learning, engagement, and collaboration! However, there is still a very long way to go in order to fully meet the needs on the ground, and that's why I also want to call for the even stronger mobilisation of the international community around Nepal. I hope that this new EU support will send a clear message of our solidarity with Nepal. International organisations, countries around the world, private companies, NGOs, volunteers and many others have expressed their willingness to help.
As a result, by the end of this week, the Government of Nepal will receive €16.6 million of EU development assistance as a budget support payment, which will provide them with additional revenue to carry on emergency response and rebuilding works.ĭespite this terrible tragedy, if there is one positive element to focus on, it’s the way in which the world has come together to show great solidarity for the people in Nepal. I am pleased to see that this was possible within just a few days. Therefore I asked my services to fast-track development support payments that were foreseen for later this year.
However, the government almost instantly also faces a huge and unforeseen financial stress on its national budget, in terms of both expenditure and receipt. When natural disasters occur there is, understandably, an immediate focus on humanitarian needs. We have made available €6 million for emergency response to help the survivors and authorities and deployed humanitarian aid and civil protection experts. The European Union responded immediately after learning of this disaster. Nepal now faces the daunting task of rehousing its people, preventing a humanitarian crisis, rebuilding major social and communications infrastructure and re-launching government and social services. Like millions of people around the world, my thoughts are with the people in Nepal in these times of great distress. I was very saddened to learn of the 7.8 magnitude devastating earthquake that hit Nepal on 25 April.
Our thoughts are with the people of Nepal at this time
