the cost of humanitarian aid provided in 2024 in PLN

The Polish Humanitarian Action (PAH) has been active in Ukraine since 2014 and on an even larger scale since Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022. In response to the escalating crisis, an extensive multi-sectoral support programme has been implemented. It covered direct assistance, including the provision of food, water, hygiene products, shelter, psychosocial, financial and educational support, and stabilisation activities carried out in regions that were hardly accessible and most severely affected by the war, such as Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Sumy, Mykolaiv and Kherson.

Humanitarian situation in Ukraine

The humanitarian situation in Ukraine has been critical since 2022. Russia’s full-scale invasion has led to a massive destruction of civilian infrastructure and difficulties in access to water, electricity and heating and forced millions of people to flee their homes. According to UN’s data, nearly 11 million people will need humanitarian assistance in 2026, including internally displaced people, those living near the front line and those who have returned but lost their livelihoods.

 

Currently, the biggest humanitarian challenges in Ukraine include (depending on the region):

  • lack of permanent access to electricity and heating,
  • destruction or serious damage to houses,
  • limited access to medical and psychological care,
  • difficulties in obtaining food and drinking water,
  • constant threat to life due to shelling.

In many regions, especially in the east and south, access to such basic services as health care or education is severely restricted, and living conditions – especially during the winter season – become extremely difficult.

PAH’s activities in Ukraine

The Polish Humanitarian Action has operated in Ukraine continuously since 2014 and to a much greater extent since Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022.

 

In response to the humanitarian crisis, PAH conducts a variety of activities that include:

  • provision of food, water, hygiene products and shelter,
  • psychosocial support,
  • financial assistance in the form of money transfers,
  • food security and agricultural support activities,
  • supply of fuel, generators and other materials needed during the winter period,
  • renovation and modernisation of houses, resettlement centres and public infrastructure,
  • training and activities increasing the resilience of communities to the consequences of the crisis.

 

PAH effectively combines emergency support with a long-term strategy to strengthen the resilience of local communities – from meeting basic needs and psychological support to agricultural development and education. It also supports local NGOs by increasing their competences and preparing them for independent humanitarian actions.
