Nepal needs 4.78 billion dollars for reconstruction

SOL11 September 2026 at 17:55

Nepal estimates it needs 4.78 billion dollars to rebuild the areas devastated by the August flash flood, which was caused by the collapse of a glacier and rocks. This value represents the estimated cost for the recovery of the areas affected by the natural catastrophe.

Relief operations continue in the field, with authorities working to help the affected populations. The scale of destruction has been significant, requiring substantial financial effort for reconstruction.

Thousands of people remain missing both in Nepal and in Tibet, which exacerbates the human dimension of this tragedy. The search for survivors and victims continues to be a priority for emergency teams.

Why this matters

This extraordinary reconstruction cost directly affects the Nepalese population and the affected communities, who face the loss of homes and infrastructure. The scale of the disaster, with thousands missing, underscores the severity of the humanitarian situation in the Himalayan region.

"Guardians of the Lord of Patience"

The Feast of the Lord of Patience takes place this Sunday, September 13, at the Monastery of Santo António, in Lombo dos Aguiares, Madeira, with the solemn Eucharist at 5:00 PM presided by D. Nuno Brás, bishop of Funchal, followed by a procession. The Poor Clares have kept this devotion alive for more than half a century, linked to the memory of the Servant of God Mother Virginia Brites da Paixão, defining themselves as "guardians of the Lord of Patience." This year marks the debut of a new hymn dedicated to the Lord of Patience, with lyrics by Sister Maria da Cruz and music by Fr. Ignácio Rodrigues, an initiative of Fr. André Pinheiro that involved the parishes of Visitação and Graça in organizing the celebrations.
