Geneva - The International Organization for Migration (IOM) is appealing for USD 350 million to support its operations in response to the humanitarian needs of people in Ukraine and those who have fled to neighbouring countries.

IOM and its partners estimate that

• from 24 February to 4 March 2022, more than 1.25 million conflict-affected people fled the country to neighboring coutries, sparking the largest humanitarian crisis Europe has seen since World War 2;
• there are 12 million people in need in Ukraine, of which 4.3 million are internally displaced persons, with projections of 6.7 million internally displaced persons;
• over 4 million people, including refugees, third-country nationals and other migrants, may flee the country over the course of the next six months, many of whom will be in need of humanitarian protection and support.

IOM is particularly concerned about the situation of stranded migrants within Ukraine, who number over 470,000 according to current estimates.

IOM’s Flash Appeal seeks to mobilize USD 350 million in order to meet the needs of crisis affected people inside Ukraine and its neighbouring countries, including Belarus, Hungary, Moldova, Poland, Romania and Slovakia.

Intervention areas to meet the needs of affected people in Ukraine and internally displaced persons, refugees, third country nationals and other migrants in countries neighboring Ukraine include:

• water,
• sanitation and hygiene,
• shelter/non-food items,
• health (including mental health and psychosocial support),
• cash-based interventions,
• multi-purpose cash assistance
• livelihoods (including integration support),
• food security and livelihoods,
• protection (including humanitarian transport and border management),
• humanitarian border management,
• camp coordination and camp management,
• the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM),
• logistics,
• information management.
