Philea stands in solidarity with the victims of flooding in Spain
All of us at Philea are deeply moved by the tragic events unfolding in Spain, where recent flooding has brought immense devastation to communities. We extend our heartfelt thoughts to the victims and all impacted, including the families and communities, and our hope that they find strength and resilience in this challenging time.
This disaster serves as a stark reminder of the urgent need for collective climate action. Philea will continue to champion philanthropy’s contribution to sustainable and effective climate solutions. While some organisations focus on immediate response efforts, we recognize the importance of long-term thinking and transformative change to address the root causes of such crises.
We are also committed to sharing information about the responses undertaken by Philea members, associates and the wider sector as we become aware of them.
