Social reception and inclusion of refugees from Ukraine. UKREF Research Report 1(2022) - Isański, Jakub; Michalski, Michał A.; Nowak, Marek; Sereda, Victoria; Vakhitova, Hanna (My University, 2022)
Research aimed to study the ongoing phenomena of cross-border displacement of the Ukrainian population resulting from the Russian aggression that started on the 24th of February 2022. In the first stage of this research, we managed to get the opinions of over 500 refugees with a focus on their needs, concerns, plans, and expectations. Collected data also allowed a reconstruction of social-demographic profiles of fleeing Ukrainian refugees. The preliminary outcomes are presented in the report. The follow-up stage envisages in depth interviews sampling adults and children who attended the surveyed schools with a substantial presence of newcomers. The outcomes will be used to produce a policy report helping to understand this unexpected situation and propose some possible scenarios.
