  • 13 October 2022, Ichnya, Ukraine: School director Luidmyla Kutchovera lays her hand on a spreadsheet schedule at the desk in her office. The Ichnya school of Vasilchenko in the Ichnya municipality of Chernihiv Oblast, Ukraine — home to 540 students (boys and girls) aged 6-16 — is empty of its students, with classes taught online only, until secure bomb shelters can be restored at the school. Following the invasion of Ukraine by Russian military forces in February 2022, Ukrainian schools are no longer allowed to undertake onsite schooling without functional bomb shelters available in case or air raids or other attacks. The Lutheran World Federation collaborates with the municipality of Ichnya to help renovate existing but not-yet-functional shelters in the school basement, intended to secure protection for at least 1,000 people in case of emergency.

  • Simon Dau, a pharmacist, fills prescriptions at his desk under a tree outside the Catholic Church-sponsored clinic in Leu, a village in the contested Abyei region along the border between Sudan and South Sudan. The clinic, along with the rest of the village, was looted and burned in 2011 when soldiers and militias from the northern Republic of Sudan swept through the area, chasing out more than 100,000 Dinka Ngok residents. A few thousand families have returned since northern combatants withdrew in 2012, yet their life is precarious. In Leu, the church rehabilitated the clinic and drilled a well. For political and logistical reasons, the Catholic Church is one of the few organizations willing to openly accompany the people of Abyei during these uncertain times.
