Key Achievements

Whole of Society Response

The response by the refugee-hosting countries has been remarkable, characterized by concerted, coordinated action at regional level, strong national leadership, an outpouring of solidarity by host communities, as well as an exceptional, unwavering commitment among local municipal authorities and civil societies, particularly local NGOs, refugee-led and community-based organizations. The RRP was built and implemented with and in support of this strong ecosystem of actors and assistance.

Cash Programming

Large-scale cash programmes were critical to urgently meet the basic needs of refugees in the first phase of the response. RRP partners reached 885,000 individuals with cash assistance during the year.

PSEA and MHPSS

Rapid deployment of PSEA and MHPSS experts and the subsequent introduction and establishment of coordination mechanisms for the cross-cutting priorities helped ensure their centrality in the response.

By the end of the year, PSEA networks were activated, and National PSEA action plans were developed in five countries, bringing together 170 partners. More than 46,000 refugees were reached through community outreach and over 3,300 frontline workers were trained on PSEA.

Through coordination, advocacy and direct services provided by governments and MHPSS actors, over 327,000 mental health and psychosocial support counselling and clinical consultations were provided to Ukrainian refugees across the region.
