Dall’inizio della guerra in Ucraina nel 2022, HelpAge e i suoi partner hanno sostenuto centinaia di migliaia di persone colpite dal conflitto, in particolare persone anziane spesso dimenticate nelle crisi umanitarie.
Attraverso aiuti alimentari, assistenza economica, cure a domicilio e spazi comunitari sicuri, insieme alle organizzazioni locali in Ucraina, Moldova e Polonia, continuiamo a supportare chi vive tra perdita, sfollamento e incertezza.
A quattro anni dall’inizio della guerra, è fondamentale restare sul campo e mantenere le persone anziane al centro della risposta umanitaria.
Since the war in Ukraine broke out in February 2022, HelpAge and its partners have supported hundreds of thousands of people affected by this conflict, many of them older women and men who are too often overlooked.
This has meant food and hygiene support, cash assistance, home‑based care, and safe community spaces where dignity is protected.
It has meant working with local organisations and HelpAge network members in Moldova, Poland and Ukraine to reach people with disabilities, refugees, and those living with prolonged displacement.
Behind every number is a person navigating loss, uncertainty, and the daily effort of carrying on. What sustains people through a long war is not only aid, but human connection and the reassurance that they have not been forgotten.
Four years on, our responsibility is to stay present, to listen, and to keep older people firmly at the centre of the response.
