World Vision struggles to bring aid to cyclone-ravaged Vanuatu

From Midday Report, 12:42 pm on 8 April 2020

Parts of Vanuatu have been devastated by Tropical Cyclone Harold, and there are now concerns as to whether aid will be able to reach the hardest-hit areas in a timely manner.

New Zealand-based aid organisation World Vision has more than 70 staff in the country, but may struggle to bring in much-needed supplies due to restrictions imposed to stop the spread of coronavirus. 

World Vision's Vanuatu director, Kendra Derousseau spoke to our producer, Jeremy Wilkinson.
