The event was organized by the Charitable Organization “Relief Coordination Centre” (RCC) with the support of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC). The Forum brought together representatives of leading Ukrainian and international humanitarian organizations, as well as volunteers who work daily to address the consequences of Russia’s armed aggression against Ukraine.

During the discussions, participants addressed a number of critically important issues, including the evacuation of civilians, support for internally displaced persons, and strengthening the resilience of communities in frontline regions amid the ongoing war.

The event was also joined by the Director of the Department of Civil Protection of the Kharkiv Regional Administration, Ivan Sokol, and the Deputy Minister of Social Policy of Ukraine, Anatolii Komirnyi (online).

The Forum served as an important platform for exchanging experience, coordinating efforts, and openly discussing the current challenges facing Ukraine’s humanitarian sector.

In addition, RCC leadership presented the BRIDGE online platform, which brings together humanitarian projects, a database, and an interactive map of community needs:
