• 337 settlements in 24 de-occupied communities of Mykolaiv and Kherson regions
• 5,914 identified needs, of which 2,928 are verified regularly
• 1,418 needs closed completely or partially thanks to partner organizations
• A network of over 877 active informants has been created
• Over 110 users report their needs through the community cabinet
• 28 humanitarian organizations already book needs for implementation through the partner cabinet

At the event you will learn about:

• The experience and results of the LINK local humanitarian response coordination mechanism over two years and the innovations of the third year of implementation;
