• There are  insufficient supplies of drinking water.

• The annual income per person : 650 US-$.

• The land degraded to a slum and dump.

• There is no infrastructure.

• The civil war from 1997 and the huge amount of refugees from Kosovo complicated matter.

• industry is almost non existent. People are living from day to day.

• Corruption, political chaos, anarchy. Despite many. efforts from various aid -organizations, problems are far from being solved.

Medical Help

Since 1997, the Juergen Wahn Foundation is in close contact with a hospital for children and for women in Kavaja. They are in desperate need of medical supplies , x-ray-ultrasonic and anaesthesia- machinery, refrigerators and washers.

They don't have enough medication.The situation in the hospitals is catastrophic in terms of  medical equipment and hygiene.

Unfortunately it is difficult to deliver aid materials to their destination due to restricted import regulations preventing proper drop off. Only  personal efforts ensure the aid materials arrive where they are desperatly needed.
