Corona crisis: The virus affects us all
In the current issue we report on the influence of the Corona crisis on the project work of Mission 21 and what measures are being taken. With our financial support, our partner churches make the often decisive difference: whether it is through intensive education and prevention work in the villages, the distribution of food, hygiene articles and other relief supplies, access to clean water, training of medical staff in the hospitals or in the home care of infected persons.
Auftrag
Our 'Auftrag' magazine sheds light on topics related to mission and ecumenism, with plenty of illustrative and background material. This magazine is published by the German-language Mission Press Cooperative (Kooperation deutschsprachige Missionspresse), which includes Mission 21 and five other mission organisations in Germany and Austria. Each issue focuses on one particular topic or geographical area. The 40-page 'Auftrag' magazine is published four times each year, in German, as a printed edition for Mission 21's benefactors.

Air
The current Auftrag is dedicated to the subject "Air - Elixir of Life" and forms the second part of a series about the different elements. Mission 21 is represented with Andrea Rhyn's contribution "Höhenluft als Lebenselixir" in the section "A picture - a story". A longer article also reports on the conflict in the Anglophone provinces of Cameroon.
Annual Report and Financial Report
The Annual Report provides information about Mission 21's work and our principles, and it shows how we applied those principles during the year under review. It includes the annual financial statement together with details about the origin and use of funds. Key donor groups are mentioned by name. The Report also includes information about the mission organisation's structure and governing bodies, together with a brief portrait of Mission 21. The Annual Report is published every June to coincide with Mission 21's international Mission Synod.
