Campaign Description
The war has been devastating for every child. UNICEF and partners are on the ground providing support for those in need. More than four years since the war in Ukraine escalated, ongoing attacks continue to take a staggering toll on children and their families. Millions of children are living in constant fear as they endure relentless hostilities, prolonged and repeated displacement and severe shortages of essential resources including safe water, electricity, and other necessities.
For many children inside and outside Ukraine, the war has wiped out four years of schooling, playtime with friends, and moments spent with loved ones, robbing them of their education and happiness, wreaking havoc on their mental state.
UNICEF was in Ukraine before the war started in 2014 and increased its reach when it escalated in 2022, staying to deliver for children. We stand with the children of Ukraine and will continue working with partners to support them through the war and beyond.

Support UNICEF’s work for children
Ukraine’s children are paying an extraordinary price in lives lost and upended. The war has resulted in death, injuries and mass displacement, with millions of people forced to flee their homes. Children are being robbed of their childhoods, of time with friends and family, of a peaceful life. They bear invisible scars and trauma that may take a lifetime to heal. The war has caused significant damage to vital infrastructure, severely impacting access to electricity, heating, water and telecommunications. Families’ incomes and access to services have been decimated. Pre-schools, primary and secondary schools have been damaged or destroyed by bombing and shelling, disrupting the education of Ukraine’s children, with potentially lifelong consequences. The upheaval of war has created a particularly challenging situation for displaced children, those living in institutions, and children with disabilities.
