Ukraine crisis strategic response plan for January–December 2023
Overview
The WHO Strategic Response Plan (SRP) for health in Ukraine is entering its second phase with a continued emphasis on collaboration alongside partner organizations. WHO and its partners remain committed to providing crucial assistance to individuals affected by the ongoing war in Ukraine, both within the country and beyond its borders. The SRP serves as a comprehensive framework, drawing upon key documents like the Ukraine Flash Appeal 2023, the Humanitarian Response Plan 2023 led by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, and the Regional Refugee Response Plan 2023, led by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. These plans guide the allocation of resources and aid efforts based on access and location, supporting national and local authorities in their leadership of readiness, response, and ongoing recovery activities. This SRP outlines response pillars that address the health needs of both Ukraine and the countries hosting refugees. This plan has a timeframe of 12 months, ensuring a sustained and coordinated approach to tackle the many challenges faced by affected populations.
