The Ministry for Development discussed a comprehensive program to support IDPs
Deputy Prime Minister for the Restoration of Ukraine - Minister for Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine Oleksii Kuleba held an interdepartmental working meeting, where the attendees discussed a comprehensive program to support internally displaced persons.
The meeting was attended by representatives of relevant ministries, the Office of the President, in particular Deputy Head of the Office of the President Iryna Vereshchuk, as well as the Commissioner for Human Rights of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Dmytro Lubinets, people's deputies, heads of regional military administrations, and community leaders. This is another stage in the process of developing a program to support IDPs, on which representatives of various departments and experts are working.
"The IDP support program is extremely important, as it is aimed at helping people who lost their normal lives due to the war. It is important that a wide range of specialists are involved in developing the program. Joint work allows us to take into account the needs of all categories of internally displaced persons and develop tools that will ensure the effectiveness of the program at every level. Together, we create solutions that will actually work on the ground and meet the needs of people," said Oleksii Kuleba.
The Ministry for Development and Reform team presented a preliminary vision of the IDP support program, which will include a comprehensive package of services: housing programs, economic support, employment, educational and retraining opportunities, medical care, social protection, and the development of a unified digital system of services for IDPs.
The program should combine a wide range of initiatives that will help resolve not only urgent housing and social issues, but also provide opportunities for economic activity and professional growth for IDPs.
Those present at the meeting had the opportunity to review the presented materials in detail, provide their comments and suggestions. The participants noted the importance of a systematic approach to supporting IDPs and emphasized that taking into account different expert opinions will allow creating an effective and efficient tool to help people in need.
The next step will be to complete the development of the program and present it to the general public.
