Project narrative
On May 20, 2020, the city of Chengdu, China, donated epidemic prevention materials to the Dutch cities of Tilburg and Maastricht. The materials were delivered using the China-Europe Express through the Chengdu International Railway Port. Evinda Hospital in Maastricht received the donation from Deputy Mayor Vivian Heuerlian at a special handover ceremony. The mayor of Tilburg, Theo Witlins, received the donation at the freight terminal and handed the materials over to a local hospital.
Staff comments
1. AidData was unable to estimate the donation size. This information gap warrants further investigation. 2. It is unclear in the sources if the donation left the Chengdu International Railway Port on May 20 or if it was delivered on May 20. AidData uses that date to estimate a commitment and implementation date, but it will be identified as an estimation until further investigation.
