This allocation is in addition to $11.8 million for food security.‘Norway's humanitarian support to Ukraine saves lives and alleviates suffering. It helps the Ukrainian people maintain their resilience. This is a key priority for Norway,’ said Minister of International Development Osmund Aukrust at the IV International Summit on Food Security in Kyiv.
These additional allocations will increase Norway's support for humanitarian efforts in Ukraine and refugees in neighbouring countries to NOK 3 billion by 2025.
Funding will be channelled through UN partners, the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, and Norwegian humanitarian organisations. The government emphasises that Norway prioritises protection and humanitarian assistance to the most vulnerable people on the front lines, support for evacuation and assistance to Ukrainians who have become internally displaced persons. Funding from Norway is also used to provide support to people who have lost their homes due to Russian attacks.
"The cooperation we see between Norwegian humanitarian organisations and local organisations to help the civilian population of Ukraine is invaluable. Norway attaches particular importance to projects aimed at protecting and improving the situation of children. Joint projects also provide food to civilians in need, direct cash transfers and housing, and support demining activities," Aukrust said.
