2022-2025
Since the beginning of the war in February 2022, over 1 million Ukrainians have crossed the border into Romania. Most of them continued their journeys to other European countries, but around 100,000 Ukrainian refugees are currently in Romania.
Launched in response to the large-scale displacement of Ukrainians, HIAS Romania quickly became a hub of hope and support for refugees in search of safety. From mental health services to economic empowerment and community-building efforts, the HIAS Romania team created lifesaving programs rooted in dignity and care.
