Russian advances and newly seized areas require adaptive humanitarian response, but organizations that provided critical services, including The Tenth of April (TTA), now have reduced staff and outreach, limiting ability to cover newly affected populations and geographies. For instance, TTA operations in Odesa are strained due to frequent air alarms and shrinking resources.
Date: 12/25
Region: Europe & Central Asia
Country: Ukraine
Topic: Peacebuilding & Stabilization, Refugees & Displacement
Policy Lens: Security & Resilience
Additional Context: Due to these constraints, planned consultations stop, group sessions are halted mid-way, and staff and beneficiaries repeatedly move to shelters. Combined with shrinking resources, organizations like The Tenth of April (TTA) are caught between maintaining minimum services in existing locations and opening new access points for communities newly affected by the outbreak of violence. The humanitarian consequences of this gap accumulate quickly: delays in assistance, weakened protection monitoring, and increased stress and uncertainty for people already living under constant threat.
TTA is a Ukrainian humanitarian and human rights organization, supporting internally displaced and war-affected people, as well as refugees, asylum seekers, stateless persons and those at risk of statelessness across 11 regions of the country. Established by human rights lawyers, TTA delivers legal aid, psychosocial support, protection services, emergency assistance and community-based programs, while working to strengthen the rule of law and help vulnerable communities recover and rebuild.
