DOCUMENT / PDF / 526 KB
Over six million people in Ukraine are estimated to have a disability, with three million formally recognised, half of whom are older people. The war has caused new disabilities across all ages, with men making up 60% of those newly recognised. People with disabilities are facing increased hardships, safety risks, and humanitarian access constraints during the war, compounded by preexisting support gaps.
