Ensuring uninterrupted access to lifesaving medicines in Ukraine

The chaos and violence of the war has had devastating effects on nearly every aspect of life in Ukraine, including the health care system. The attacks have destroyed hospitals and health clinics, disrupted supply chains, and prevented patients from accessing the care they need. In the immediate aftermath of the invasion and continuing today, we refocused our efforts to combat these wartime challenges and worked with the Government of Ukraine to distribute medical humanitarian aid to those most in need. While many of our project staff have been forced to flee their homes, they remain dedicated to this mission and continue to build on our progress to reform Ukraine’s health care system. In addition to keeping the supply chain intact and establishing public- and private-sector partnerships to maintain an ample supply of medicines, equipment, and medical staff, we will continue to help forge a path forward for Ukraine and provide hope in the midst of uncertainty.
