Our mission is to save lives. Initially we were founded specifically to support veterans of the war in the east of Ukraine that began in 2014, however it was always intended that the organisation would go on to provide emotional support for every Ukrainian and to become the national suicide prevention for anyone from any walk of life. Since the beginning of the full scale war which has caused immense suffering across the country the demand for support from Lifeline Ukraine has surged. Before 24/02/22 we used to average 1,000 instances of support being provided per month, now we provide anywhere between 4,000 and 6,000 instances of support per month. We have adapted as an organisation to the needs of the people of Ukraine as they are reflected in the kind of situations we encounter in our work, and everyone in Ukraine is one way or another a victim of this war. We support people who have lost loved ones, we support people who have been subjected to sexual violence, we support people who have been displaced by the war, and so on.
Teach For Ukraine (TFU) is a registered non-profit organization working to address the problem of education inequity in Ukraine. Our mission is to ensure that every child in Ukraine can realize their potential through a quality education, especially during the war. Before the War Before Russia's large-scale invasion in February 2022, Teach For Ukraine was focused on bridging the educational gap between children from rural and urban areas, which was almost 2.5 years difference in their knowledge and skills (PISA-2018). We recruited, trained, and placed more than 50 teacher-leaders in disadvantaged schools with a high teacher shortage, a lack of role models for children to look up to, and opportunities for developing their talents. We partnered with 18 schools in the five regions of Ukraine, including Kyiv, Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Dnipro, and Odesa regions. This gave us the opportunity to provide more than 5,000 children with young, talented, tech-savvy, and highly motivated teachers. The Impact Report can be found here. During the War When the large-scale war started, we temporarily suspended our core program to launch the Emergency Response Projects. In the last 18 months, we provided direct and indirect academic and psychosocial support to more than 25,000 children inside and outside Ukraine and 90,000 educators, partnering with UNICEF, the World Bank, Save the Children and others. These projects included free online tutoring classes, safe learning spaces for displaced children, offline summer camps and wellbeing workshops for teachers.

At its recent World Congress in Jeju, South Korea, WFD members (136) approved the WFD strategic direction 2023-2030 and Action Plan 2023-2027. Important themes are covered in these 2 documents which strive to ensure that we create access for all deaf people to all ways of life in "a world where deaf people everywhere can sign anywhere" (vision). Furthermore, our mission is to work towards the full realisation of linguistic rights and human rights in all areas of life, with full recognition and implementation of these rights across local, national and international levels. To realise our mission and vision, the following are part of our Action Plan 2023-2027: Building Capacity across the Globe: ensuring increased participation of women, youth and underrepresented communities; provide effective capacity building projects to countries who are not yet members to assist them with creating their own national deaf associations so that they can represent themselves in their countries; Putting Deaf people on the Agenda: the WFD will continue to strive to put deaf human rights at the forefront of all representation internationally, including at the UN; we will effectively promote International Week of Deaf people and be ready to response to deaf people's needs in times of crises, disasters and war. Realising nothing about us without us: the WFD continues to be the leading authority for deaf people and sign languages and has committed to developing resources to assist deaf people raise awareness in their countries. Achieving Sign Language Rights for all: National sign languages are fundamental to achieving deaf people's human rights. We will aim to assist our member states in promoting the legal recognition of signed language in the country and advocate for early childhood language acquisition and inclusive multilingual education policies. Investing in a strong and sustainable organisation: to carry out our mission and vision we need greater investment in our secretariat and regional secretariat, expand our donor base, increase visibility and fundraising activities so that our organisation can carry on its important global work.
