AWO International is the professional association of the Arbeiterwohlfahrt (AWO) in Germany for humanitarian action and development cooperation. Solidarity, tolerance, freedom, justice and equality - AWO's core values apply across borders. In close cooperation with national non-governmental organisations, AWO International works to ensure that disadvantaged people can sustainably improve their living conditions. In the event of disasters, AWO International is involved in humanitarian emergency and rehabilitation. AWO International has been involved in Ukraine since Russia's war against Ukraine in February 2022, which violated international law. Together with our Ukrainian partner organisations, we support the population affected by the war. Our programme priorities in Ukraine are emergency relief and rehabilitation with a focus on renovation of buildings, winterisation activities and promoting access to basic social, health and educational services as well as MHPSS. Furthermore, we strengthen Ukrainian civil society and promote gender equality, inclusion and environmental protection.
