Severe flooding in Padang has submerged homes and roads, disrupted access, and forced some families to move to safer locations. Human Initiative will provide emergency assistance including ready-to-eat meals, hygiene kits, and temporary shelter support, prioritising children, women, elderly people, and other vulnerable groups.
Heavy rain since 3 August 2026 has caused flooding across Padang, inundating residential areas and roads. Strong currents have swept away motorcycles, submerged vehicles, and carried timber and debris. Families affected by the floods face urgent needs for safe shelter, food, hygiene supplies, and evacuation assistance.
Human Initiative will deliver emergency relief to flood-affected communities in Padang. Assistance will include ready-to-eat meals, hygiene kits, and temporary shelter support for displaced families. Aid will be prioritised for households directly affected by flooding and vulnerable people who require immediate protection and basic necessities.
This emergency response will help affected families stay safe, meet essential needs, and reduce health and protection risks during displacement. By providing food, hygiene support, and temporary shelter, the response will also help families stabilise their situation and begin the early recovery process after the floods.
