• Risks associated to political crisis: criminalization, raids, thefts
• Progressive deterioration: transportation, utilities, violence, gasolineshortages
• Psicological and resilliency support for staff, living conditions, families
Challenges
![Page 26: Responding to Venezuela´s Complex Humanitarian Emergency · Responding to Venezuela´s Complex Humanitarian Emergency Feliciano Reyna Simón Bolívar Foundation Houston, October](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042306/5ed191d238f837763c35f6e4/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• Support US programs of collection and delivery of aid toVenezuelan partners on the ground (Individual organizations or networks) – staff, warehousing, inventorysystems
• Provide funding for local transportation to US hubs and forshipping costs to Venezuela
• Implement flexible, creative, heterodox programs
