  • 11 March 2022, Vyšné Nemecké, Slovakia: Supplies in a storage room at the Evangelical Lutheran church in Pozdišovce, waiting to be transported to the border crossing at Vyšné Nemecké for distribution to incoming refugees. The Vyšné Nemecké border crossing connects Slovakia with the city of Uzhgorod in Ukraine. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began on 24 February, hundreds of thousands of refugees have crossed the border to Slovakia in search of refuge and shelter from war and an increasingly desperate humanitarian situation. The border crossing at Vyšné Nemecké sees up to some 10,000 refugees cross each day, with faith-based and humanitarian organisations providing immediate support to people as they come into Slovakia. Support onsite includes simple shelter and beds for resting, information services, coordination of onward travel into Slovakia and finding temporary accommodation there, medical and psychosocial support, food, drinks, toys for the children, hygiene items and other necessities.

  • Arbanac Sofija and her 3-year old daughter Caka huddle under a blanket - provided by Church World Service - inside their meager home in an illegal Roma settlement in Belgrade, Serbia, in February 2012. The poor family has been told it will be evicted by city officials in March 2012 to make way for new high-rise office buildings.  In April 2012, the Serbian Orthodox family was forcibly evicted from the city center and given a metal shipping container in Makis, at the edge of Belgrade, where they could live. After several weeks, they were evicted from the shipping container because of her husband's repeated fights with his neighbors, and at the end of 2012 lived in an informal Roma squatter settlement in nearby Palilula. In 2009, they had been evicted from another settlement in Belgrade..
