The Protection Sector provides technical guidance and oversight to ensure effective, coherent and predictable interventions to support the Government of Poland in its efforts to respond to the protection needs of all asylum seekers and refugees, stateless persons and other persons of concern fleeing Ukraine, with due considerations for their age, gender and diversity.
In this context, the Protection Sector wishes to stress that the application of the Temporary Protection Directive in Poland is unprecedented, and has guaranteed swift access to safety, documentation, and rights for over one million refugees from Ukraine.
The below set of recommendations are based on broad consultations with protection partners and feedback collected through interviews and focus group discussions conducted with refugees from Ukraine. The Protection Sector members stand ready to continue supporting the Government of Poland in the implementation of the Temporary Protection Directive, including through technical advice as well as operational contributions to enhance service delivery as needed.
