Our Foundation is launching a new project, Increasing Access to Legal Aid and Information on Fundamental Rights for the Affected Population in Sumy and Chernihiv Regions, implemented with the support of the Norwegian Refugee Council in Ukraine and the Kingdom of Norway.
Key activities:
- We will assist with light home repairs in the Okhtyrska hromada. This support will include replacing windows and doors, roof repairs, and other work to prepare the homes of the most vulnerable households for the winter season.
- Our lawyers will provide free consultations on housing, land, and property matters. Assistance will include preparing documents, supporting in obtaining compensation for damaged or destroyed housing, restoring property ownership documents, and resolving inheritance cases. Consultations will be available both remotely and during in-person meetings with residents in remote communities.
- We will conduct a series of awareness-raising sessions for the affected population. The meetings will take place online and in person.
- We will develop and distribute publications on issues related to rights to housing, land, property, etc. These publications will be provided to residents of communities lacking stable internet access.
- We will organize training sessions for IDP Councils, human rights defenders, and community representatives. The training sessions will focus on developing local advocacy skills and strengthening the capacity of communities to effectively protect the rights of IDPs.
This activity is made possible within the framework of the Increasing Access to Legal Aid and Information on Fundamental Rights for the Affected Population in Sumy and Chernihiv Regions project, implemented by the Charity Foundation “Stabilization Support Services” together with the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) in Ukraine, with the support of the Kingdom of Norway.
