OVER 6 MILLION
REFUGEES IN EUROPE
6300000. This is the number of refugees who have fled Ukraine since the beginning of the Russian invasion in February 2022, nearly 10 times the population of Luxembourg. These people - mostly women and children - left everything overnight to save their lives. Today, more than 3 million are in Poland, 850,000 in Romania, 550,000 in Hungary.
TECH IS CREATING JOB OPPORTUNITIES FOR REFUGEES
The digital and ICT sector is one of the most dynamic and job-creating in Central and Eastern Europe: almost half a million Poles work in this sector,and about 200,000 Ukrainians are web developers. In addition, more than 250,000 jobs in the digital sector are relocated each year - all of these jobs could benefit Ukrainian refugees.
WE SUPPORT UKRAINIAN REFUGEES ON THEIR JOURNEY TO EMPLOYMENT
Through “Act for Ukraine” , we want to connect 100,000 Ukrainian refugees with employment opportunities in their host countries or remotely. To break down the barriers refugees face in their journey to employment, INCO and its partners are taking the following actions :
-
Upskilling and education

Child care
