Moldova

Caritas Czech Republic has been operating in Moldova since 2004. We are dedicated to developing social and health services, and efficient waste management. In the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, we have expanded our work to include humanitarian aid to provide for the basic needs of Ukrainian refugees.

Humanitarian aid for Ukrainian refugees

From the first days of the war, we have been involved in helping refugees from Ukraine. We have equipped 12 refugee accommodation centres and increased medical and psychosocial services availability. We have also supported displaced Ukrainians through direct financial support, enabling long-term financial self-sufficiency and helping them rebuild a decent life.

Development of social and healthcare services

We have opened 11 home care centres in Moldova. Thanks to the development of telemedicine, we are increasing access to healthcare, especially in remote regions. We have also trained over 5,000 doctors, nurses and social workers. We are involved in preparing legislative changes to introduce an efficient home care and social services model in the country.

Efektivní nakládání s odpadem

Efficient waste management

Moldova's rural regions still need help with illegal landfills and the need for an effective waste management system. We are helping local institutions with functional and sustainable waste management.

Raisa from Moldova is dependent on the help of others. The services of a home care centre are a relief for her

Rural regions in Moldova are often home to lonely seniors. Young people often move abroad for job opportunities, leaving behind relatives who are unable or unwilling to leave. They often face loneliness, poverty, and inadequate health and social care. One of the lonely elderly women is 73-year-old Raisa from Taul village. Thanks to a home care centre opened by Caritas Czech Republic in Moldova, she is feeling much better.

A church collection is coming up to help persecuted Christians. Join us on 14th May

Traditionally, churches take up a collection on the Sixth Sunday of Easter to help persecuted Christians and others in need. Last year alone it raised nearly 9 million crowns. Thanks to the generosity of donors, help reaches thousands of people in need every year. For example, people returning home after the war in Iraq, or Lebanese who find themselves in a difficult situation. Join the collection this year on 14th May.

Women play an essential role in humanitarian aid. Why are they so important?

Women play an essential role in humanitarian aid. Why are they so important?

What is it like to be a woman affected by war or natural disaster? What do women and girls need in such situations? This is often better understood by other women, humanitarian aid workers. Up to 40 per cent of the more than half a million aid workers worldwide are women. Our colleagues, women humanitarian and development aid workers, explain why they think it is important for women to be involved in this field.
