Ukraine – useful resources
European Union
All information is gathered on the page “EU solidarity with Ukraine“.
The European Commission created an information page for people fleeing the war in Ukraine with information on rights, travel options, national authorities to contact for temporary protection and which organisations are active in helping those fleeing Ukraine, as well as how to contact them.
Another page includes a section “How you can help” with a repertoire of the numerous organisations that have mobilised in the EU Member States to support people from Ukraine seeking protection in the EU. These include the national branches of international agencies, umbrella organisations and a range of other charitable and humanitarian bodies. It also lists the major relief organisations active on the ground that are coordinating assistance to Ukraine.
The page “EU Assistance to Ukraine” explains what the EU is doing at different level (humanitarian help, civil protection mechanism, emergency logistical hubs, temporary protection mechanism etc.)
