Description:
The war in Ukraine has forced millions of families to leave their homes in search of refuge, protection and support. Since the beginning of the conflict, an estimated 17 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance and protection throughout Ukraine.
WeWorld, together with ChildFund Alliance, took immediate action to provide humanitarian aid to people displaced from the eastern areas of the country, providing support to cope with the emergency and activating partners on the ground.
WeWorld supports children and their families by providing food, shelter, medications, basic needs and access to education and psychosocial services. Interventions aim to support people who, despite the conflict, have decided to stay, people who have returned after abandoning their homes under attack and people displaced from the east of the country.
To date, WeWorld has supported 60,000 people, half of whom are children.
