The 7.7 earthquake, that hit Myanmar on 28 March caused widespread damage to homes, schools, health centres and public infrastructure in Mandalay and Sagaing. The earthquake compounds an already dire humanitarian situation where nearly 20 million people already needed humanitarian assistance across the country due to prolonged conflict, recurring natural disasters and economic collapse. Children and their families who have lost their homes are now dealing with extreme heat and expected rain or thundershowers, further deepening those already critical needs, especially for shelter. World Vision is providing live-saving relief assistance to the children and their families affected by the earthquake. Through our humanitarian efforts, both immediate relief and long-term recovery, we aim to support 500,000 people, including 85,057 boys and 86,902 girls. As of 8 April 2025, we have reached 22,063 people affected by the earthquake, including 6574 children (3,830 girls, 2,744 boys).

Throughout 2024, World Vision Albania was present in 21 municipalities. Collaborating with a network of 76 partners, WVA's initiatives positively reached the lives of 28,873 children via its diverse programming.
