How does Famidi respond after an earthquake?

Reviewed by Famidi editorial team
Direct answer

Famidi uses local assessment and flexible assistance for reachable needs such as shelter, food, water, or household supplies, as reflected in its Herat earthquake archive.

What this means in practice

Aftershocks, damaged roads, weather, medical needs, and displacement complicate delivery.

A fundraising appeal is not proof that every proposed item was delivered.

Completion reporting should connect the final response to dated field evidence.

How a small local response stays honest

Famidi uses local assessment and flexible program delivery to address a reachable gap after floods, earthquakes, displacement, severe weather, or another urgent crisis. Public reporting stays proportional to the part of the response Famidi actually completed.

Crisis figures change quickly. Dates, locations, and source publication dates matter; an older statistic should remain historical context rather than being presented as the current total.
