High-profileUkraine: Humanitarian response update
18/mrt/22
2022Also available in:
No results found.The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) is extremely concerned about the effects of the war on lives and livelihoods in Ukraine. The war has already caused extensive loss of life and damage to infrastructure, and the situation remains extremely volatile, with likely significant impacts on food security and agricultural livelihoods. FAO is staying and delivering, and has reinforced its team in Ukraine. About 10 percent of the USD 50 million requested by FAO under the Rapid Response Plan for Ukraine has been received to date. Funds received so far will enable FAO to assist 23 000 vulnerable rural men and women farmers around Donetsk, Luhansk, Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhzhia. If more resources are made available now, FAO will be able to increase the number of rural people assisted this spring season. -

Preliminary results from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) monitoring system show a worsening trend in food security, especially in oblasts with active ongoing fighting and those with the highest numbers of displaced people. Within those hosting significant populations of internally displaced people, 20 percent of host households lack cash to meet their basic food needs and cover bills, and on average 80 percent are resorting to various coping mechanisms and incurring debts. FAO requires USD 115.4 million to assist 981 627 people in rural areas until the end of December. To date, FAO has raised USD 8.4 million to reach 70 941 people with livelihoods support. With more resources, FAO will be able to reach more people in time for the spring season. This support is needed urgently. -

This document provides an up-to-date summary of the humanitarian situation in Ukraine and the response of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) on the ground. According to the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food (MAPF), Ukraine exported 12.9 million tonnes of cereals, legumes and flour in the 2022/23 marketing year (including September 2022) compared with 20 million tonnes during last year’s marketing year. Between August and mid-October 2022, more than 7.8 million tonnes of grain and foodstuff have been exported so far through the Black Sea Grain Initiative, of which 24 percent of the cargo has gone to low and lower-middle income countries. Through its Rapid Response Plan and Grain Storage Support Strategy, FAO requires a total of USD 180.4 million to assist 979 320 people, address 25 percent of the grain storage needs and strengthen government capacity for food commodity testing and certifications necessary for export at border facilities. To date, FAO has mobilized USD 79.7 million, leaving a gap of USD 100.7 million, which is urgently needed to support vulnerable households in rural areas during the winter season. FAO continues to work on the ground in Ukraine with a team of over 95 members, including technical and operational personnel deployed to support the scale-up.
