The project in brief
Background The outbreak of the war on the 24.02.2022 had a disruptive impact on all levels with unknown prospect. Because of the conflict more than 15.7 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance, over 7.7 million people are internally displaced, and more than 5.7 million have left the country to take refuge elsewhere. This requires a fast and coordinated response of national and international actors in a highly volatile context. Military actions continue to be unpredictable, the access to affected population remains variable.
Objectives Alleviate the suffering and support the recovery of the conflict affected population of Ukraine.
Target groups Conflict affected population of Ukraine, in GCA and NGCA
Medium-term outcomes

Outcome 1: Conflict affected people of Ukraine maintain their access to essential live-saving services and recovery measures

Outcome 2: Damaged, interrupted or affected social infrastructure, equipment or services are built back better

Outcome 3: Switzerland’s humanitarian response is integrated in the Swiss programme portfolio
Results

Expected results:  

Output 1: Initiated, planned and ongoing SHA interventions are implemented and coordinated (Outcome 1/ Outcome 2)

Output 2: New needs-based interventions are assessed in key niches in complementarity to the ongoing Swiss programme portfolio (Outcome 1/ Outcome 2)

Output 3: Provide direct and complementary support to the Swiss programme portfolio (Outcome 3)


Results from previous phases:  

Humanitarian Aid SDC has immediately after the start of the crisis responded with three action lines to address the increasing humanitarian needs and suffering.

  • Financial support to multilateral partners
  • Relief aid (shelter, food- and non-food items, medical supply)
  • Technical Expertise (Assessment team)

Thanks to the improved security situation, a Base of Operation (BoO) was opened in Lviv on 12.04.2022 and a team consisting of between 3 and 4 SHA members and several local employees was set up, with the aim of implementing projects in the areas of WASH, health and protection in alignment with the Swiss Cooperation Programme in Ukraine 2020-23.
