The goal of the project is to reduce the risks associated with the cold season and to provide the minimum necessary conditions for the safe and dignified living of people affected by the war who have limited opportunities for self-sufficiency.

The essence of the project

The project involves providing targeted winter humanitarian assistance that addresses the basic needs of people for warmth, safety, and daily survival in wartime conditions.

Within the framework of the initiative, the following activities are being carried out:

• distribution of solid fuel (firewood) for heating households;

• provision of individual non-food items (NFI) kits to support vulnerable people during the cold period.
