Relief supplies for areas affected by war
Since 2022, Malteser International has distributed more than 5,000 tons of relief supplies in Ukrainian towns and villages, as well as on the borders with neighboring countries. Especially in the southern and eastern parts of Ukraine near the conflict line, many people are still in need of material support and humanitarian aid almost two years after the start of the war.
Situation
The ongoing destruction of infrastructure, the mining of agricultural land and the constant attacks on Ukrainian areas close to the front are severely affecting the income opportunities of residents in eastern and southern Ukraine. Access to everyday necessities is severely limited, especially outside the major cities. In addition, there are regular attacks on the critical energy supply, similar to last winter, which often lead to long-lasting power cuts. Malteser International and our partner network in Ukraine therefore continue to support the population with food, hygiene products and winter kits. Our focus is primarily on internally displaced persons and returnees in areas close to the front line.
The aim of the project is to improve and strengthen the living conditions and resilience of those affected by distributing food, winter and hygiene packages.
- Provision and distribution of food and everyday necessities, as well as needs-based and seasonally adapted relief supplies (hygiene articles) and winter aid in the form of winter kits
- Maintaining supply chains via warehouses in Ukraine
