The 3PI Team also supports rapid onset emergencies, such as cyclones and earthquakes and has procured and distributed medical supplies, essential non-food items (NFIs), hygiene kits, to remote, hard-to-reach regions following these emergencies. The 3PI Team is also implementing projects to support communities to recover following the April 2025 Mandalay earthquake.
