EMERGENCY IN UKRAINE
the situation
Working with local partners is key to this response –
the local communities have been the true first responders
and our role is to stabilize, sustain and standardize
the services being offered to refugees.
How we help?
People arriving at the border need practical support such as with food, shelter and medical services. But the trauma they have experienced must not be forgotten. Medair is starting psychosocial support activities in Vinnytsia (Ukraine). Training in Psychological First Aid is being provided to staff, and Psychosocial Project Managers are currently being recruited.
How you can help
Life-saving goods are urgently needed,
but it is logistics which bring these to the needy.
Just as important as the fund-raising is the supply chain behind the scenes. It’s better to donate cash rather than send individual packages to the scene. It is through professional logistics management that donations work to save more lives.

Who we are
Medair is working in some of the hardest hit countries around the world and it is important to bear in mind that there are also other crisis. UN International Fund for Agriculture Development (IFAD) reports that food prices and shortages of staple crops are already been felt in the Middle East and North Africa (including the Horn of Africa). Quarter of wheat exports come from Russia and Ukraine, with 40 percent of wheat and corn from Ukraine being exported to the Middle East and Africa.
