Our heartfelt thoughts and sympathies to the people of Nepal and Tibet, as communities search for loved ones lost from the destruction of devastating floods—worsened by a global climate crisis that is destabilising Himalayan glaciers, leaving innocent people to suffer the consequences.

The destruction of communities in these areas is deeply saddening and the Institute welcomes Australia's humanitarian assistance to support the urgent disaster response and recovery efforts, see updates here: https://www.smartraveller.gov.au/news-and-updates

You can also support communities in Nepal by donating to the Red Cross which powers local emergency teams to provide assistance during disasters: https://www.redcross.org.au/workplacegivers/nepal/
