LandsAid Member’s Annual General Meeting Held in Munich for the first time

A Shared Perspective on the Association’s Development

A Look Ahead to 2025

A look back and current developments

July 2026 — Last Saturday, July 25th, our annual general meeting took place in Munich for the first time. Together, we looked back on an eventful year, discussed current developments, and talked about what LandsAid will be focusing on in the coming months.

Among other items on the agenda was LandsAid’s 20th anniversary. Following our anniversary celebration in January in Landsberg am Lech, a second celebration marking our 20th anniversary will take place in September in the Emsland region. We have many ties to the region: Our Executive Director, Hans Musswessels, and our Supervisory Board member, Gaby Breuckmann, are from the Emsland region. Many of our long-time donors, who have reliably supported our work for years, also come from there.

A large part of the meeting was devoted to our project work. In 2025, approximately 40 projects were either underway, in the planning stages, or in the follow-up phase. These projects were made possible by funding from Aktion Deutschland Hilft, the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, as well as donations and foundation grants.

Three projects provided a special insight into our work: healthcare for refugees in Greece, the evacuation and support of particularly vulnerable people in Ukraine, and earthquake relief in Myanmar. Our current relief efforts following the earthquakes in Venezuela were also discussed. There, among other things, we are supporting families with mother-and-child aid packages and working to improve the supply of clean water in emergency shelters.

In addition to the projects, the meeting focused on staff development, personnel expenses, and plans for 2026. The association’s annual financial statements, balance sheet, and financial situation were also presented.

Another topic was our public relations work. Our website, newsletter, social media, and press relations continued to evolve over the past year. At the same time, it is becoming more difficult to get humanitarian topics covered in traditional media. That is why social media, short posts, and new digital formats are becoming increasingly important to us.

Our fundraising emails were also part of the review, including the Autumn email campaign for aid in Ukraine and our Christmas email campaign.

The reports and figures were well received by the members in attendance. After the Supervisory Board had answered a few questions, the members granted it discharge for the 2025 fiscal year.
