What does the EU do to help tackle poverty in Latin America?

Janez Lenarčič, the EU Commissioner for Crisis Management, is on a mission to help people fleeing violence and poverty. He travels to Colombia and Panama to send a signal: despite its own crises, Europe is thinking of Latin America too.

Accompanied by Alexandra von Nahmen, Felipe Abondano, and Johan Ramirez, the Commissioner visits Panama to set up the first permanent Crisis Reaction Center outside of Europe. The goal is to be prepared for any humanitarian crises and natural disasters that may occur in the region. With this initiative, the EU seeks to provide aid to those in need while safeguarding its own interests. Join the team on a gripping journey through Central America, as they face the daunting challenge of protecting vulnerable communities in times of crisis.
