About publication

This report presents the results of a study on the needs of internally displaced persons in the Berehove district of Zakarpattia Oblast. It analyzes the situation of displaced persons, focusing on their access to housing, healthcare, employment, and social services. The report is based on a survey of 175 individuals and aims to provide local authorities and international partners with a clear database for developing support programs.

Who will benefit?

  • Local authorities
  • Activists
  • Journalists

Key findings:

The data obtained indicates the financial vulnerability of the respondents: over 60% of families have an income that is only sufficient for food, making them completely dependent on social payments. The main systemic barriers are the unsatisfactory condition of housing (over 40% of those surveyed are dissatisfied with their conditions) and a low level of economic activity due to a shortage of vacancies with decent pay and biased attitudes from employers. It is important to stimulate self-employment, expand the network of social housing, and involve IDPs in local IDP councils, as over 30% of those surveyed do not feel part of the community.
