Norwegian Refugee Council, (2023)
The assessment focused on Ukrainian refugee youth in Moldova and Romania, revealing significant needs alongside hopes for a secure future. Language emerged as a key overarching need affecting various aspects of youth’s lives. Economic support, secure jobs, and stable integration were frequently cited needs. While youth appreciated the safety of host communities, anxiety about their futures persisted. “Feelings of isolation and distance from family and friends displaced by the conflict” contributed to mental strain. The youth provided practical suggestions, emphasising language support and community centres for meaningful connections. The insights aim to inform humanitarian organisations’ programming, aligning with the priorities and aspirations of refugee youth.
