Ukraine : a humanitarian response in constant evolution

Three years after the start of the conflict in Ukraine, the war has affected more than 15 million people. Thanks to the generosity of the Swiss population, Swiss Solidarity (Chaîne du Bonheur) has supported over 90 projects for more than CHF 100 million bringing essential humanitarian assistance to millions of displaced families.

The conference offered the opportunity to share the experiences of Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) on the field, particularly local NGOs working on the front line, the lessons-learned and report back on the results achieved. Building on the expertise of practitioners and academics, the event looked at questions such as: how have humanitarian actors adapted their actions to the changing needs of the Ukrainian population? What solutions and strategies have they found in recent years to overcome the many obstacles to humanitarian aid in Ukraine? What is the key role the Ukrainian civil society has to play in order to address the changing needs and challenges the victims of the conflict continue to face ?
