Venezuelan refugees and migrants in the region. Congolese refugees in the Great Lakes region. Ukrainian refugees in Poland, Romania and Moldova. Syrian refugees in Türkiye, Lebanon, and Jordan. The EU assistance to the forcibly displaced is making a difference in the lives of many: Examples of EU humanitarian aid to forcibly displaced people In education in emergencies, more than half of the projects supported targeted refugee and internally displaced children. Cash provides refugees and IDPs with a sense of dignity and independence and serves to tighten links with local communities, as aid money is spent in small local businesses. Projects implemented on the ground helped the forcibly displaced access shelter, protection, food and basic services such as health care, nutritional assistance, safe water, sanitation and education.Ībout 35% of the humanitarian aid reached refugees and IDPs in the form of cash transfers (debit cards, mobile transfers, and cash in hand). 
This funding helped meet the most urgent needs of extremely vulnerable populations including women, children, and people with disabilities, protecting, and supporting them during displacement and when returning to their homes. In 2021, the European Commission allocated most of its humanitarian budget of €1.4 billion to projects that address the needs of forcibly displaced and local communities. The EU is a leading international donor in situations of forced displacement.
