Solidarités International
Desired start date: ASAP Duration of the mission: 6 months ( to be extended) Location: Lviv
ABOUT THE MISSION
The conflict in Ukraine has seen a dramatic and rapid escalation since 24th February 2022 with massive multidimensional attacks from Russian troops throughout Ukraine, from the East, North, and Southern borders that affected a large part of the country including the capital, Kyiv. This attack has been immediately followed by massive displacements, and as of today, more than 4 500 000 Ukrainians have taken refuge in neighboring countries. About 6 500 000 are internally displaced, mostly in the Western part of the country.
These IDPs have often lost their source of income and rely on relatives, host community and solidarity to find food and basic items. Housing is as well now scarce in the area; prices subsequently increase and the improvised transit centres that are supposed to host IDPs for a few days before they manage to find accommodation are already at the limit of their capacities.
Part of these people, coming from affected areas, are transiting & settling in Lviv region. To support them, SI has started cash assistance and is working with community shelters to provide food kits, hygiene kits, and NFIs to the most vulnerable people.
SI is also operating in Mykolaiv oblast, which is a sub-base sub-base to support hard-to-reach people, living close to the line of contact, who could not leave their village or that have decided to settle in Mykolaiv city for the time being. In addition to its distribution activities, SI is providing water daily thanks to water trucks to the population and implements and wash rehabilitation.
