Since the first weeks of a full-scale invasion STAN cooperates with an international organization Hilfswerk International in this direction. From now on, the work will focus on providing the necessities for shelters for displaced persons and psychosocial support for people who were forced to leave their homes due to the war.

In particular, the project provides the arrangement and comprehensive support for the activities of 10 shelters of Ukraine.

Not only comfortable places to sleep will be equipped. Shelters will be provided with food and hygiene products.

However, people living in shelters will not be the only ones to receive help. During the implementation of the project, to IDPs will be distributed:

At the same time, the PSS team, that have studied the “do no harm” approach, confidentiality, gender equality in humanitarian actions and social inclusion, will provide the comprehensive assistance to IDPs.
