As global mechanisms such as the Fund for Responding to #Loss and #Damage continue to evolve, the gap between climate impacts and available financing remains significant.

In commemoration of #WorldEarthDay2026, DCA was proud to be featured on @BBCAfrica , helping bring this reality into sharper focus.

In the feature, communities in #Chesongoch, Elgeyo Marakwet County share their lived experiences following devastating mudslides in November 2025, which buried homes, farmland, and livelihoods within minutes.

Although immediate response efforts, through @DCA_Kenya's Humanitarian Crisis Fund and the Mudslide reponse project implemented by @ADSNorthRift , are gradually helping affected households stabilize, the voices from the ground are a stark reminder that humanitarian funding alone is not sufficient when #climate impacts are this severe and long-lasting. There is an urgent need for predictable, accessible, and adequately scaled loss and damage finance to support meaningful recovery for frontline communities.

"We cannot turn our backs on one of the worst crises of our times while millions of men, women, and children suffer displacement, famine, and extreme violence in Sudan as international law is flouted with impunity," says Jonas Nøddekær, Secretary-General of DanChurchAid #Sudan

On 31. Dec, 37 INGOs operating in the Palestinian occupied territories received official notification that their registrations will expire - including DCA. Now 53 NGOs warn that the humanitarian consequences of deregistration will be dire in #Gaza. https://t.co/7HV5Dw6wy9

Managing waste in a time of conflict is important to minimise health risks 🛑
This is one activity carried out by DCA/NCA and partners in Gaza presently - as our Secretary General Jonas Nøddekær witnessed recently.

DCA's International Director, Karin Lind recently visited a demining site in Libya where bombs and explosives are removed to make way for productive use of the land - all thanks to generous support from the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs @DutchMFA 🇳🇱 🙏

🛑We note with concern #Ukraine's decision to suspend the 1997 Mine Ban Treaty. This step contradicts the treaty’s core mission of putting an end to the suffering and casualties caused by anti-personnel mines, that kill or maim 100s every week. Read more👇

Russia is targeting Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure, causing energy blackouts & water shortages. In the frontline regions of Mykolaiv & Kherson, we are providing support ranging from photovoltaic systems ensuring water supply for 440,000 people to mobile “Sun Wagons” combining solar & wind energy with clean water technology.

This is #EUForeignPolicy in action!

[Peter M. Wagner 🇪🇺 @pmwBxl]

Down in the south, up above the city. Started our visit to Mykolaiv on a rooftop which thanks to solar panels helps purify water. Then on to see a Sun Wagon: combining electricity and water filtration it can move between communities as needed. Good cooperation w @DanChurchAid
