Local residents are donating food. Volunteers are clearing rubble. And people affected by the earthquake are helping however they can. This is what solidarity looks like in Roldanillo, Colombia, as communities come together after the earthquake. Willington had previously been affected by the armed conflict in the country. Now, having lost his home to the earthquake, he and his restaurant team are cooking meals for volunteers working across the town.

Children are starving. Families are fleeing conflict. Millions of people have been forced from their homes. Yet crisis after crisis is met with too little attention, too little funding and too little action. And it's happening right before our eyes. Neglect is not an accident. It is a choice.

On Monday, Colombia was hit by one of the strongest earthquakes to strike the country in the last decade. More than 230 people have lost their lives, thousands have been affected, and many families are now waiting to find out whether it is safe to return home. The damage is widespread. Homes have collapsed, hundreds of schools and health centres have been affected, roads have been damaged and several airports are closed. In the immediate aftermath, people urgently need safe water, food, temporary shelter and health services. NRC is coordinating with authorities and humanitarian partners and stands ready to support those most in need. The country already suffers from a severe humanitarian situation, and is the third most neglected in the world. It is crucial that Colombia receives the support it needs. Before the earthquake, there were more than nine million people with humanitarian needs, including those displaced by conflict as well as refugees and migrants. 📷 Federico Rios/The New York Times
