Help is at hand: another information meeting was held in Kharkiv with residents of a collective accommodation site for IDPs.

The team from the Luhansk Association of Organizations of Persons with Disabilities continues to meet with internally displaced persons (IDPs) living in collective accommodation sites selected for the "Inclusive Accommodation and Protection of Vulnerable IDPs in Kharkiv Region" project. This time, we visited the residents of another site to meet them in person, explain the project's opportunities, and—most importantly—listen to the people and hear about their needs and challenges. For many residents, this site has become a temporary home following their forced displacement. Our goal is to make their living conditions safer, more accessible, and more comfortable—especially for persons with disabilities, the elderly, and other vulnerable groups. During the meeting, participants learned about the support provided by the project, planned measures to improve living conditions, and how to access necessary assistance. Special attention was paid to issues of accessibility, protection, and the residents' individual needs. The meeting took the form of an open dialogue. Anyone interested had the opportunity to ask questions, share their challenges, and receive advice. It is important to us that people not only know about the available assistance but also feel heard and supported, knowing their needs are being considered and they are not left to face their problems alone. We continue our work to ensure that support reaches those who need it most. The project "Inclusive Accommodation and Protection for Vulnerable IDPs in the Kharkiv Region" is implemented by the Luhansk Association of Organizations of Persons with Disabilities with the support of the International Rescue Committee (IRC) and financial backing from Sweden, provided through the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida).
