If you are a committed, creative professional and are passionate about making a lasting difference for children, the world's leading children's rights organization would like to hear from you.

For 70 years, UNICEF has been working on the ground in 190 countries and territories to promote children's survival, protection and development. The world's largest provider of vaccines for developing countries, UNICEF supports child health and nutrition, good water and sanitation, quality basic education for all boys and girls, and the protection of children from violence, exploitation, and AIDS. UNICEF is funded entirely by the voluntary contributions of individuals, businesses, foundations and governments.

BACKGROUND

Since the beginning of the armed conflict in eastern Ukraine in April 2014, over 2 million people have been displaced within Ukraine and abroad. At least 8,500 people have lost their lives and a further 18,000 were wounded. The conflict has taken a substantial social and economic toll on the communities that are currently hosting IDPs in eastern Ukraine. On the one hand the economic implications have been far reaching across Ukraine and negatively impacted employment opportunities in general. But, it is in areas directly impacted by the fighting such as in Donetsk and Luhansk, where basic infrastructure has been destroyed that the impact has been the greatest. Loss of revenues combined with higher living costs and diminishing or deficient government services have put the family, community and societal coping mechanism under great strain prior to factoring in the impact of IDPs and increased competition for limited resources.

UNICEF, with the support of the Government of Germany through its Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW) has developed the "Towards greater social cohesion and integration of IDPs in eastern Ukraine" programme which seeks to address these needs in Donetsk and Luhansk as Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhia.
