Project “Support for young people and women affected by the war in the Kharkiv region”
The NGO Green Landia, together with its partners ActionAid and with financial support from Danida, implemented the project “Support for young people and women affected by the war in the Kharkiv region.”
About the project
Support was provided to young people and women through psychological counseling, group sessions, and educational activities. Resilience and empowerment kits and warm clothing were distributed among young people and women affected by the crisis. A networking and experience-sharing event was held for IDPs and at-risk groups.
Importance of the project
The project addresses the complex challenges faced by young people, women, and IDPs in crisis situations, including increased stress, social isolation, and loss of security. Without adequate psychological and social support, these factors reduce people's ability to participate in community life and recovery processes.
Through a combination of psychological support, group sessions, educational activities, networking, and basic support, the project helps restore resilience, social connections, and civic engagement. This creates the conditions for more cohesive and resilient communities in the long term.
In addition to the psychological and educational components, the project addresses the basic needs of vulnerable groups, in particular through the distribution of support kits and the provision of items for warmth. This approach strengthens trust in the project and provides real, tangible support to those who need it most.Tasks
