Humanitarian component of the project

A total of 68 shelters were arranged across five regions of Ukraine, where the highest numbers of internally displaced persons (IDPs) from occupied and de-occupied territories are concentrated. As most IDPs remain in these shelters, it is crucial to ensure safe and comfortable living conditions to support their mental and physical well-being during displacement.

Within the framework of the project, a total of UAH 45,336,483 was allocated and spent as follows:

• UAH 20,921,823 — for furnishing bedrooms, bathrooms, toilets, and laundry rooms
  
• UAH 22,337,270 — for providing hot mobile meals to sheltered individuals in Dnipro
  

UAH 2,077,390 — for purchasing and distributing hygiene kits and essential items for people with limited mobility
