Over the last week, Russia has launched a military invasion of Ukraine. This has forced 100,000s of Ukrainians to take refuge in the countries bordering Ukraine: in Poland, Hungary, Moldova, Slovakia and others.
 
  1. What is the situation for refugees with disabilities and their families in these border countries?
  2. What are the barriers for those seeking refuge? How is support for them being organised?
  3. What role for EASPD members?
Join us to learn more about how support services in countries bordering Ukraine are helping refugees with disabilities.
