Andrew Urquhart hears from Anna Hanyadi of Barnabas Aid about the escalating humanitarian catastrophe in Haiti, where gang control of much of the capital, political instability and repeated natural disasters have left over six million people needing aid and up to 250,000 children facing acute malnutrition.




The pair detail brutal violence against Christians and aid workers, including church massacres and kidnappings, and explain how Barnabas Aid partners with locals like civil engineer Bruce Robinson to deliver durable, sustainable solutions - proper buildings, irrigation and wells - rather than short-term relief, aiming to restore dignity as much as meet physical need. They point listeners to upcoming "Encourage" events across New Zealand in October featuring a Pakistan-based project coordinator, and invite support through prayer or donation ([www.barnabasaid.org](https://www.barnabasaid.org)).
