Venezuela earthquake recovery and national development
Overview
Following the devastating June 24 earthquakes, which caused over 6,500 fatalities and $14.831 billion in damages, a Post-Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA) report conducted by the United Nations, the European Union, and the World Bank estimates that Venezuela requires up to $21 billion for recovery and reconstruction.
In response, the government has implemented several relief measures. Banco del Tesoro launched a mortgage credit program offering subsidies of up to 80% for properties valued under $70,000 to assist families who lost homes. Additionally, the Teletón Venevisión 2026 ‘Unidos por Venezuela’ campaign was initiated to support medical care, school reconstruction, and humanitarian aid through Cáritas de Venezuela.
Acting president Delcy Rodríguez has reported progress through the ‘Venezuela Renace’ plan. While recent updates indicated over 2,400 homes had been rehabilitated and delivered, Rodríguez reported 100 days after the earthquakes that 2,422 housing units have been delivered, benefiting 8,862 people across Caracas, La Guaira, Miranda, and Aragua. Despite these efforts, 18,055 people continue to reside in 86 temporary camps, though 30 camps have recently closed. The government remains focused on restoring public services; in La Guaira, electricity and gas supplies have reached 100% restoration, and 99% of potable water services have been recovered.
Beyond reconstruction, Rodríguez addressed economic recovery, attributing progress to dialogue with the United States and domestic opposition. She announced the ‘Plan Venezuela Alimenta’ to combat hunger, noting a decrease in subnutrition rates. During the FAO World Food Forum in Rome, Rodríguez and Dominican President Luis Abinader discussed diplomatic normalization, including the potential reopening of the Dominican consulate in Venezuela and energy cooperation regarding fuel purchases, specifically AC30 and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), between Refidomsa and PDVSA.
