Romania

Romania is located in south-eastern Europe and borders Ukraine. Since the start of Russia's war of aggression, it has been an important transit and reception country for refugees. At the same time, Romania has the highest levels of material and social poverty among young people in the EU. Furthermore, the consequences of climate change are becoming increasingly apparent in the form of more frequent droughts and floods.

AWO International provides humanitarian aid in Romania, for example to refugees from Ukraine and to those affected by flooding. As part of our commitment to global learning, we also promote the empowerment of young people and professionals in matters of democratic participation.

Humanitarian aid in Ukraine

The ongoing Russian war in Ukraine has already forced millions of people to flee their homes, including many children and young people. According to the United Nations, around 18 million people in Ukraine are in need of humanitarian aid. Since February 2022, AWO International has been working with local partner organisations to provide emergency relief and reconstruction.
