The war in Ukraine has heightened socioeconomic vulnerabilities for millions of Ukrainian and third-country nationals (TCNs) residing in the country, amplifying risks on an unparalleled scale and leading to unprecedented levels of displacement within Ukraine and across its borders. According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), there were 6,554,800 Ukrainian refugees worldwide as of June 2024, including 5,996,500 residing in Europe and 558,300 hosted by other countries (UNHCR, 2023a). The majority of those who have fled the country since February 2022 are women and children.
