The NGO “PLATFORM OF INITIATIVES TEPLYCYA” Annual Report for 2022–2023

Report for 2022–2023: From the Start of the Full-Scale War to Systemic Resilience

For the NGO “PLATFORM OF INITIATIVES TEPLYCYA”, 2022–2023 became a time of the greatest challenges and immediate decisions. With the start of the full-scale invasion, we quickly reformatted our work to respond to the critical needs of society while keeping our main focus intact — supporting young people and community development.

This report is the story of how we learned to stay flexible in times of crisis, brought people together, created the first spaces for adaptation, and laid the foundation for our future large-scale work.

Key achievements of the period in numbers

1. UAH 25,908,579 — secured in financial support from international partners and donors to implement humanitarian and social projects during the peak of the crisis. 
2. 4,511 families  — the total number of Ukrainian families with children who received urgent humanitarian aid and evacuation support from frontline areas. 
3. Responding to wartime challenges: We created comfortable conditions for the temporary stay of IDPs. In safe communities, we organized 6 integration and educational camps for 472 children among IDPs, children of military personnel, and children from de-occupied territories of Ukraine.
4. Preserving youth work: We supported 16 youth centers and spaces, helping them remain safe hubs and points of support for teenagers and young people in their communities.
5. First steps in modernization: We began work on improving living, sanitary, and hygiene conditions in the first 7 educational and healthcare institutions that were receiving people.

What did this stage mean for our organization?

1. Rapid reorientation: We proved that we can work in the "here and now" mode, turning humanitarian and social challenges into clear project solutions.
2. Partner trust: It was during this period that we built strong bridges with international foundations that saw us as a reliable, transparent, and resilient local operator of change.
3. Unity: We united communities around mutual support, showing that even in the hardest times, the synergy of youth and local self-government can work wonders.

The beginning of our path to resilience.
