Contesto

As a result of the Russian war of aggression, the City of Kharkiv located in Eastern Ukraine near the frontline has been heavily damaged. Many buildings have been left uninhabitable. Kharkiv urgently needs repairs, particularly focusing on windows. This is critical to endure the harsh continental-climate winter, especially given the energy shortages in Ukraine.

Obiettivi

The project supplies materials for windows installation. The Kharkiv Window Rehabilitation Initiative restores habitability to war-damaged homes by replacing 32,507 windows in priority buildings across Kharkiv. The project addresses Ukraine's immediate humanitarian and housing needs, while supporting long-term goals of resilience, sustainability and reconstruction.
