We also support an innovative tuberculosis (TB) programme in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and WHO to achieve a new model of care, linking Ukrainian TB patients to medical facilities and psycho-social support.
After withdrawing from the Poland-Belarus border region in December 2021 due to a lack of access authorisation, our teams returned to the area in November 2022. We are now working in the Podlasie region to respond to medical needs in collaboration with other organisations and civil society groups, including treating injuries, hypothermia, dehydration, and making referrals to hospitals for the most severe cases.
