GPM has responded to emergency relief assistance in various disasters and conflicts. As in every calamity, the population at large, especially women and children, suffer badly and face extreme shortages of water, medicine, shelter and food. GPM tries to reduce the suffering of the most afflicted by delivering food, medicine and blankets, as well as building temporary shelters for thousands of refugees; whether it is in or outside the camp.

Last year, 2009, GPM responded with relief assistance to the tragedy during the war in Gaza, Palestine and also in Padang, Indonesia after the earthquake.
