Introduction The situation on the ground Australian Red Cross - more than playing our part Meet our aid workers Focus on Protection, Gender and Inclusion Support in Australia The unique position of Red Cross Red Crescent during conflict Looking ahead – Winter in focus A final message to supporters

Nine months from the escalation of the international armed conflict in Ukraine, the situation is more dire than ever.

We take the opportunity on this milestone to report back to donors and supporters on our humanitarian response.

It has been a large and complex response bringing together many elements within our own organisation and across the global Red Cross Red Crescent Movement (the Movement) to help the millions of people impacted.

We are very grateful for your support and urge you to stay the course. The world cannot afford to lose interest. As winter bites in the north, the humanitarian crisis caused by this conflict is set to only deepen. It will have a direct impact on those caught up by the conflict, and an indirect impact on many millions more reliant on grain from this part of the world. We echo calls from those people impacted for continued support from good people such as yourself. Together we can most effectively respond to those in need.
