Operational Context:
UNHCR, present in Ukraine since 1994, expanded its presence significantly following the 2022 invasion. UNHCR's offices in Kyiv and field units across major cities bolster the emergency response. The war in Ukraine has led to extensive suffering and displacement. By 2024, 14.6 million people need humanitarian assistance, with 3.7 million internally displaced and 6 million refugees across Europe, mainly women and children. The destruction of civilian infrastructure, especially the energy sector, has severely disrupted access to essential services like electricity, water, heating, healthcare, education, and social protection. Humanitarian access remains challenging, particularly in areas under temporary Russian control, necessitating a deep understanding of protection needs and the implementation of community-based approaches in volatile areas. Odesa, Mykolaiv, and Kherson have faced varying conflict levels due to their proximity to conflict zones, resulting in significant displacement and complex security environments. Military operations and checkpoints are common, affecting movement and access. Odesa Oblast: As a strategic port city, Odesa has seen influxes of displaced persons. The urban environment presents unique challenges in shelter and integration, requiring effective coordination with local authorities and communities. Mykolaiv Oblast: Proximity to conflict zones makes Mykolaiv critical for humanitarian intervention, facing infrastructure damage and access issues. Efforts focus on immediate relief and long-term recovery support. Kherson Oblast: Kherson experiences significant displacement and security concerns. Disruption to its agricultural base affects food security, with humanitarian responses providing emergency aid and supporting agricultural recovery.
Civilians face serious risks, especially in eastern and southern Ukraine. The risk of GBV, sexual violence, and child protection concerns is high among IDPs, returnees, stateless persons, and refugees. Separation of families is a common issue. Displaced or war-affected populations live in deprivation due to loss of housing, income, and access to essential services. The Ukrainian government leads the response to these needs, with UNHCR supporting protection, shelter, cash, and in-kind assistance. UNHCR's strategic orientation aims to reach vulnerable people in frontline areas with immediate relief while supporting displaced and returning populations with protection advice, housing, cash assistance for recovery and durable solutions. Engaging communities and local authorities to identify durable solutions and promoting participatory approaches is crucial. Protection remains central to this response, with UNHCR leading the Protection, Shelter/NFI and CCCM Clusters. Given Ukraine's sophisticated systems, UNHCR's programs address immediate needs while supporting sustainable and inclusive national protection systems, including implementation of durable solutions.
