Diospi Suyana e.V.

Contact with “Diospi Suyana” was made via the AUMUND agent in Peru. We were shocked by the appalling conditions in Peru during the Covid pandemic and had approached him in the summer of 2020 to ask for recommendations for eligible project partners in the health sector. One of these recommendations was the mission hospital established by Klaus Dieter and Martina John, doctors from Germany, for the descendants of the Inkas in Peru, the Quechuas, who have been living in poverty for generations. Doctors from all over the world have been working here for more than 25 years as volunteers, with local support workers who are paid, to counteract the high child mortality, malnutrition and low life expectancy of this population group.

During his visit to Rheinberg in the spring of 2023 Dr John gave us a very impressive report on the work on site, which is supported by a firm trust in God (Diospi Suyana).

With the funding of oxygen ventilation equipment during the pandemic and the provision of a steam steriliser for the operating wing of the hospital, we were able to make small contributions to the valuable work of the hospital.
