Urgent and timely winterization assistance to internally displaced, returnee, and war-affected individuals in Ukraine ltpgtThe full-scale war in Ukraine provoked one of the biggest humanitarian crises in decades, producing a wide range of needs. According to the 2023 Humanitarian Needs Overview (HNO) and related Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) for Ukraine, an estimated 17.6 million people need humanitarian assistance.

ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtThis coming winter will be the second since the Russian Federation's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Some 5 million people remain forcibly displaced in Ukraine and millions more who have remained in or returned to war-affected areas need humanitarian assistance and support during the coming winter months. ltspan style="font-size: 14px"gtWinters in Ukraine can be harsh and early interventions are essential to ensure warm, safe, and dignified living conditions for affected people.lt/spangtlt/pgtltpgtltspan style="font-size: 14px"gtltbrgtlt/spangtlt/pgtltpgtltspan style="font-size: 14px"gtHomes have been damaged and destroyed by missile, rocket, and artillery attacks. Much of the damage caused to the energy and heating infrastructure last winter has not been repaired and there is a risk that further damage will be inflicted in the coming period. Conditions in many collective sites remain challenging in winter temperatures. As the war continues and livelihood opportunities have been lost, people’s resources have been depleted. The cold weather that comes with winter brings additional stresses and makes life even more difficult and dangerous for people who are already overwhelmed by the ongoing war and by living in displacement for an extended period of time. lt/spangtlt/pgtltpgtltspan style="font-size: 14px"gtltbrgtlt/spangtlt/pgtltpgtThe winterization response will be UNHCR's priority from 1 September onwards and in coordination with the government and other humanitarian actors, UNHCR will target the most vulnerable internally displaced, returnee, and war-affected individuals to support them through the winter in conditions of safety and dignity.lt/pgtltpgtTo this end, and through this project, UNHCR and implementing partners (including local NGOs) will support through rental market initiatives, cash for energy, and rapid insulation of homes. More specifically: (i) rental support (cash for rent) will be provided in the west and centre of Ukraine to support displaced populations with warm, safe, and dignified accommodation in advance of the winter period (ii) support for winter energy needs (cash grants) will be provided so displaced, returnee, and war-affected individuals can heat their homes during the winter in the west, centre, and east (iii) Insultation of sub-standard houses (through distribution of rapid thermal kits) in the north of Ukraine to support people to quickly and efficiently enhance the thermal envelope of their home, helping to to improve thermal retention and reduce heating costs throughout the winter period.lt/pgt
Support during the winter period of the civilian population affected by the military conflict. ltpgtThe project will focus on providing coal for 800 households (3 tons of coal per household), which are located in the NGCA of Donetsk region (Gorlovka 200 HH, Debaltsevo 400 HH, Bakhmut district 200 HH).ltbrgtThe beneficiaries of the project will be people with the following categories of vulnerability: people living alone aged 65+, people with partially destroyed housing and people with disabilities. Additional vulnerability criteria will be IDPs, people who have returned to their place of permanent residence and women heads of households.ltbrgtThe project corresponds to Priority of this UHF reserve allocation and the Winter Preparation Plan Ukraine, and Strategic Objective 1 of the Humanitarian Response Plan: "Provide timely life-saving multisectoral assistance to 3.7 million internally displaced people, 3.8 million non-displaced people and 2.3 million people who have returned to their place of permanent residence, ensuring their safety and respect for human dignity".ltbrgtAfter reviewing possible coal suppliers, we understand that the purchase of 3 tons of coal for one household will cost $ 1050, delivery – $45. The total amount of coal purchase for 800 HH will be $840,000, supplier delivery (delivery by specialized machines) – $36,000. The total budget of the project is estimated to be $ 998,967ltbrgtHADC has experience in implementing similar projects. In 2022, HADC implemented a coal distribution project for 500 HH at NGCA Donetsk region with the support of UHF.ltbrgtHADC confirms the ability to work in the uncontrolled territory, as well as its ability to access all locations, even those that are the most difficult to access.ltbrgtAlso, HADC confirms its ability to manage its bank account in the territory controlled by Ukraine. All settlements within the framework of the project, as well as before the escalation of the conflict, will be carried out by bank transfer, within the framework of Ukrainian jurisdiction.ltbrgtAll actions within the framework of this project will be coordinated with organizations carrying out similar activities in this humanitarian direction, the Shelter Cluster, as well as with representatives of the de facto authorities, in particular with the social institutions.lt/pgt

Emergency assistance to the conflict affected population in the eastern and southern oblasts of Ukraine ltpgt


lt/pgtltpgtltspangtThis action is an integrated lifesaving
and emergency project aiming to increase access to protection and Shelter 
NFIs assistance for internally Displaced persons (IDPs), returnees, and
conflict-affected persons in the regions of Kharkiv and Donetsk (GCA –
Government Controlled Areas only) in eastern Ukraine, and Mykolaiv and Kherson
(GCA – Government Controlled Areas only) in southern Ukraine. The project has
been designed as an integrated response where Protection is the overarching
sector informing Shelter and NFI as well as DRC’s overall response in the
targeted regions. This intervention will complement and will be carried out in
synergy with DRC’s emergency program in eastern and southern Ukraine which
includes - through funding from other donors – Protection, Shelter  NFIs, MPCA,
Economic Recovery, Exploded Ordnance Risk Education, and Humanitarian Demining
activities. lt/spangtlt/pgt

ltpgtltspangtProtection. lt/spangtltspangtThe intervention focuses on collecting and analyzing data concerning
protection risks of the Persons of Concern (PoC) through Protection Monitoring
(PM) to inform DRC and the overall response. PM data and analysis will be summarized
in quarterly reports to generate a reference source for evidence-based
programming. DRC will also conduct RPA – Rapid Protection Assessment where PM
will not be appropriate due to security concerns. As complementary activities
to PM to mitigate the protection risks of Persons with Specific Needs (PWSN)
identified through PM, DRC will implement individual Protection Assistance
(IPA) and/or Cash for Protection, group protection information sessions, internal
and external case referrals, Psychosocial support (PSS) level 2, and legal aid
(legal group information sessions, legal counseling, and legal assistance). All
above-mentioned protection activities will be integrated programmatically and
geographically as much as possible.lt/spangtlt/pgt

ltpgtltspangtShelter  NFI.lt/spangtltspangt While Shelter  NFI assistance focuses on
lifesaving activities, some activities such apartment and house winterization
and repair will have a longer-term impact in mitigating PoC protection risks.
House and apartment repairs will be carried out only in the regions of Mykolaiv
and Kharkiv as most of the targeted locations in Donetsk and Kherson regions
are currently at shelling range distance from the frontlines, so these kinds of
actions are deemed not yet appropriate.  Household
(HH) standard NFI kits, Collective Center (CC) HH standard NFI kits will be
distributed in all four targeted regions. Emergency Shelter Kits (ESK) will mainly
be distributed in Kherson and Donetsk oblasts, but also in remote areas of Kharkiv
and Mykolaiv regions. In addition to this, DRC will deliver family hygiene kits
to PoC through funding from other donors to integrate the basic needs
assistance provided through this intervention. All DRC´s NFI kits as well as
the ESK have been designed in accordance with the Shelter  NFI cluster
standards.lt/spangtlt/pgtltpgtlt/pgt
Holistic Health Solutions ltpgtltbrgtThe proposed project will contribute to the development of a relevant system for providing medical and psychosocial assistance to the affected population, aimed at reducing the impact of armed conflict on access to medical and social services at the level of the communities of Dnipropetrovsk region (Nikopolska, Zelenodolska, Marganetska ltbrgt
hromadas) and Sumy region (Konotopska, Shostkinska, and Trostyanetska hromadas) The project will be implemented by the CO "Light of Hope". The experience of the organization in the healthcare and protection sectors, and a coordinated approach within all activities ensure the organizational capacity to effectively implement the proposed package of measures. Based on established and strong community engagement mechanisms in target areas, and experience in integrating healthcare and protection programs, all project activities will be aimed at addressing key needs, focusing on:ltbrgt-	Providing integrated primary medical and sanitary assistance (PMS) and protection services by creating six mobile brigades (3 in Sumy region and 3 in Dnipropetrovsk region). Mobile brigades will provide services directly in hard-to-reach areas (remote areas of the region, rural areas) to solve the problem of limited access to basic medical support and protection faced by the affected population and those affected by the conflict. As part of the protection component, the activity that mobile brigades will carry out will include: case management for people with special needs (PwSN), cases of gender-based violence (GBV), and child protection (CP), individual and group psychosocial support (PSS). For the integrated component "Healthcare", proposed measures include: a complete package of primary medical and sanitary assistance, provision of medical supplies, screening, and referral to primary medical and sanitary assistance centers (PMSC)/secondary medical care for further integration of the most vulnerable population groups into the medical system. The creation of joint mobile healthcare and psychosocial support teams has the advantage of practical implementation of integration between the two sectors and strengthening pathways for redirection in both directions, using both components as entry points.ltbrgt-	Improving access to services for people with special needs and disabilities, aimed at reaching the most vulnerable individuals living in remote and conflict-affected areas, and implementing protection principles related to inclusive involvement and participation.ltbrgtlt/pgt

home-bound individuals) by providing clean water in areas where the water
supply has been damaged. lt/spangtlt/agtltspan style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif"gtThe project aims to:
(a) contribute to the principled and timely lifesaving assistance to people
affected by the war, based on their perceptions and feedback, to ensure equal
access to clean water and (b) support the provision of essential and
gender-responsive services to the most vulnerable people affected by the
conflict by meeting emergency needs through water provisions that contribute to
both immediate and long-term recovery in some of the most at-risk locations in
Ukraine (HRP Objectives 1 and 2).lt/spangtlt/pgt

Winter Energy Needs Support by Conditional Cash Transfers for Vulnerable Frontline and Other Households in Zaporizhzhia and Donetska Oblasts ltpgtWinter is a period of increased hardship for vulnerable front line communities. Russia's weaponisation of winter is expected to recommence. With the Ukrainian counter offensive underway and Russia attempting to halt advances, front line communities, especially those in key strategic and contested areas, are highly likely to have severely disrupted energy supplies during the winter months. lt/pgtltpgtThis project will support the solid fuel winter heating needs of 2,175 vulnerable households (approximately 6,525 direct beneficiaries) in 9 conflict-affected Hromadas (6 in Zaporizhzhia Oblast and 3 in Donetska Oblast). It will provide the selected HHs with solid fuel (coal, wood or sunflower briquettes) for 4 months (December 2023 to March 2024). lt/pgtltpgtThe Shelter Cluster approved HH solid fuel requirements will be delivered  through conditional cash transfers.

An integrated medical-logistic intervention in support of the most war-affected people in the Eastern and Southern of Ukraine ltp class="MsoNormal"gtThrough this project, CUAMM and implementing partner VIS
will seek to address critical needs and gaps in target locations through a
two-fold strategy:lt/pgt

ltp class="MsoNormal"gtFirstly, this project will improve accessibility and
functioning of comprehensive quality and integrated healthcare through
procurement, prepositioning and distribution of
medicines/equipment/consumables. Building on ongoing projects, CUAMM and IPs
will ensure fast mobilization of international suppliers for the procurement of
drugs, consumables and medical equipment. NFIs for light repairs and emergency
lightning support (generators) will ensure adequate and safe functioning of
facilities. The RHNA findings will inform the health facilities to be assisted
– based on available resources and severity of needs. Priority will be given to
health facilities serving isolated communities and/or under high stress due to
lack of resources.lt/pgt

ltp class="MsoNormal"gtSecondly, CUAMM and VIS will seek to improve the
psychosocial resilience and well-being of healthcare staff and most vulnerable
populations through targeted MHPSS interventions for health care providers,
first responders and other community members working in the health sector.
Mobile teams will reach out to individuals in need of MHPSS across communities,
with priority given to most vulnerable groups, including elderly and PWD who
are at high risk of marginalization. Overall, the project will reach 25610
individuals including (14350 women, 3580 girls, 6100 men and 1580 boys).lt/pgt

conflict-affected direct beneficiaries.lt/pgtltp class="MsoNormal"gt

lt/pgtltp class="MsoNormal"gtThis will be achieved, by supporting the repair and
rehabilitation of water and wastewater systems in rural areas of Donetsk,
Kharkiv, Kherson, Mykolaiv, and Zaporizhzhia oblasts. After assessing the
situation of rural settlements that have been experiencing unreliable water
supply and sanitation services as well as the technical requirements, in close
coordination with representative of the targeted communities and water company
utilities (vodakanals), IOM will repair and rehabilitate the damaged equipment
or procure a replacement. To ensure that the rehabilitated system can function
with a fluctuation in demand and power supply, IOM will furthermore upgrade the
supporting technical elements, such as control cabinets and frequency
controllers.lt/pgtltp class="MsoNormal"gt

lt/pgtltp class="MsoNormal"gtFurthermore, in order to respond to the heating needs of
conflict affected populations in newly accessible and hard to reach areas in
Mykolaiv oblast, IOM will procure, deliver and install independent “mobile
heating rooms”. The systems, which use solid fuel boilers to heat water, are
used to support centralized heating, or as back up when centralized hot water
is unreliable due to power outages in institutions and social facilities, allowing
to cover the needs of the most vulnerable in the winter months.lt/pgtltp class="MsoNormal"gt

lt/pgtltp class="MsoNormal"gtThe project will contribute towards the overall 2023 HRP
strategic objective 2, which is to “Enable access to basic services for
internally displaced people, non-displaced people and returnees”. The present
action is also aligned with the 2023 WASH cluster objectives. IOM is already
active in the targeted Oblasts. The funding made available to IOM through this
allocation will contribute to the realization and scale up of existing IOM large-scale
WASH interventions, including in continuation of existing activities to respond
to priority needs.lt/pgtltp class="sceditor-nlf"gtltbrgtlt/pgt
