📋 Tender Overview
Today, a meeting was held at the Regional Office of International Cooperation with partner organizations of the UN that provide humanitarian assistance to Chernihiv region. Among those present were the first deputy head of the regional state administration, Konstantin Mehem, and representatives of relevant structural units of the regional state administration. Currently, 147 organizations are operating in Chernihiv region. Last year, 240,000 people received assistance in the region. Representatives of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) presented the humanitarian needs and response plan for 2026. This years priority areas include support for the most vulnerable people who remain near the front line, providing assistance during evacuations and after shelling, as well as supporting internally displaced persons (IDPs). Konstantin Mehem updated the regions needs. In the context of constant attacks and prolonged power outages, strengthening energy resilience and ensuring a stable heating season remain a priority. This includes ensuring the uninterrupted operation of social and critical infrastructure facilities and resilience points, supporting private households, and more.
Our priorities remain unchanged. First and foremost, these are border communities that constantly suffer from shelling. The enemy also deliberately strikes critical infrastructure. This requires attracting more resources to ensure that life support systems operate on alternative power sources, noted Konstantin Mehem, thanking partners for their systematic support of Chernihiv region.
Also, the participants of the meeting discussed the restoration of housing, ensuring evacuation from settlements near the border with the Russian Federation, arranging temporary accommodation for IDPs, and providing them with essential goods, among other issues. Representatives of partner organizations shared information about their activities in the region.
