ProjectFactsheetEmergency Food Security and Livelihoods Assistance to Conflict Affected Households in Ukraine - TCP/UKR/3901 2024
Also available in:
No results found.The crisis in Ukraine reached alarming proportions. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) estimated a staggering 4.5 million people requiring urgent agricultural livelihoods support and food assistance, which represents a 2 000 percent increase since the onset of the crisis in February 2022. As the conflict continued to escalate, a humanitarian crisis especially in East Ukraine became dire. To address this, a project was designed to target the most vulnerable populations affected by the conflict, particularly those residing in rural areas of Donetsk and Luhansk oblast. These regions saw a significant deterioration in living conditions due to the ongoing conflict, resulting in higher unemployment rates and limited access to livelihood opportunities. Many households within 0 to 10 kilometers of the contact line were left grappling with food insecurity, resorting to backyard agriculture and livestock production to meet their basic nutritional needs. -

Rapid technical assessments found that, during Tropical Cyclone Harold, over 80 percent of crops were damaged, and over 50 percent (death rate) of livestock and livestock infrastructure were damaged. In coastal communities, fishing activities are practised by almost 58 percent of households. Damage to fishing boats and engines severely affected fishing activities, which provide a valuable protein and income source. -
