Financial Aspects of Supporting Ukrainian Refugees

Abstract:

Warfare in Ukraine meant that in 2022 many countries, including Poland and other European, focused mainly on helping refugees from Ukraine and humanitarian transports. The assistance took on various forms - from basic humanitarian support, through in-kind help, financial and military assistance. Poland launched its humanitarian aid in the first days of the conflict. The aid provided by each country varies. It should be noted, however, that in each case it is possible to quantify it economically, i.e. to determine its scope, role and importance, and above all, its economic (financial) dimension. The aim of this article is to present various forms of assistance from European countries, with particular emphasis on Poland. As part of the research, the latest available literature on the subject, industry reports and sometimes press articles were used.
