In Ukraine, over 2.7 million persons with disabilities were registered before the war, and by July 2022, it was estimated that 13% of the families fleeing Ukraine had at least one member with a disability.
Since the outbreak of the war, EDF and our partners swiftly began aiding Ukrainian asylum seekers and refugees with disabilities, addressing their needs like accommodation, healthcare, and essential services.
