The agricultural sector in frontline regions of Ukraine has suffered critical losses. The destruction of infrastructure and landmine contamination have deprived a significant portion of the rural population of their livelihoods, making traditional farming and livestock breeding impossible. Disrupted food supply chains further increase the risk of food insecurity for vulnerable communities
As part of the FAO humanitarian response, the project focuses on supporting households headed by women and or elderly people. Its goal is to restore the productive capacity of private farms, ensure access to critically important agricultural resources, and strengthen the resilience of rural communities, preventing further humanitarian decline in rural areas

This initiative addresses the energy crisis in rural communities of Sumy Oblast, where hostilities and the destruction of critical infrastructure have deprived residents of stable heating. The project applies a comprehensive approach that combines humanitarian assistance for vulnerable groups with environmental protection. By providing communities with alternative solid fuel, the program ensures survival during the winter period while preventing illegal deforestation, soil erosion, and biodiversity loss in the region
The project also aims to prevent illegal logging and forest depletion caused by increased demand for heating in emergency conditions by providing one time financial assistance for the purchase of solid fuel
