DSV extends humanitarian logistics support with UNICEF

DSV has extended its partnership with UNICEF to provide in-kind flights to deliver emergency supplies in times of crisis.

One year into their three-year partnership, the enhanced agreement will help DSV to support UNICEF in delivering life-saving supplies.

Since September 2024, DSV has provided UNICEF with in-kind flights to deliver over 85 tonnes of essential supplies for children caught up in emergencies in seven countries.

This includes supporting the first airlift of UNICEF’s aid in response to the emergency in Lebanon last year and delivering over 30 tonnes of medical equipment and tents to the Democratic Republic of Congo to support the mpox outbreak response.

Carla Haddad Mardini, Director of Private Fundraising and Partnerships at UNICEF said: “Hard-won progress has been possible thanks to the generosity of partners to help children survive and thrive. Our partnership with DSV has been instrumental in this mission, providing crucial support and resources that enable us to reach children in a timely and effective manner.”

Jens H. Lund, Group CEO of DSV said: “Throughout this partnership, we are committed to combining our capabilities, industry expertise and global network with UNICEF's mandate to ensure timely access to essential supplies for children caught in emergencies. Together, we overcome logistical challenges and deliver to even the most remote locations.”
