Disaster Resilience
When disasters strike, vulnerable communities face a dual crisis: immediate devastation and long-term health threats. GX Foundation strengthens resilience before, during, and after emergencies through a comprehensive approach that combines rapid response, preventive health measures, and sustainable recovery. By integrating disaster risk reduction with public health protection, we help communities withstand health emergencies and rebuild stronger.
Disaster Preparedness Kit
Designed for regions where disasters disrupt basic services, GX’s Disaster Preparedness Kit equips families with essentials for survival and health protection. Each kit is organised into five critical categories:
- Information items (emergency guides, communication tools)
- Water and sanitation supplies (purification tablets, hygiene kits)
- Medical provisions (first aid, disease prevention)
- Non-food items (shelter materials, multipurpose tools)
- Nutrition support (ready-to-use therapeutic foods)
Currently deployed in Vanuatu – the world’s most disaster-prone nation – these kits empower communities to endure emergencies while reducing secondary health risks like disease outbreaks. By preparing today, we’re safeguarding tomorrow.
Health Emergency & Disaster Risk Management
Natural disasters are frequent, and when needed and permitted, GX Foundation will personally assess and support affected countries. Beyond immediate relief efforts, we are committed to supporting long-term recovery and resilience through our emergency programmes. We focus on building partnerships with project countries to address necessary and unmet needs, which includes providing medical supplies, rebuilding infrastructure, and implementing preventive measures to mitigate the impact of future disasters.
During the COVID-19 epidemic, we donated 260 tonnes of emergency relief materials, including ventilators, oxygen concentrators, monitors, and other anti-epidemic supplies. By working closely with local governments and communities, we strive to enhance their capacity to respond effectively to emergencies and build more resilient healthcare systems.
