Interview for NV: About the Work of Ukraine’s Largest Humanitarian Organisation

Ahead of International Volunteer Day, Maksym Dotsenko, Director General of the Ukrainian Red Cross, spoke to NV about the work of Ukraine’s largest humanitarian organisation.

Every day, the Ukrainian Red Cross operates where help is needed most. Our staff and volunteers save lives, support internally displaced persons (IDPs), assist local communities, and help restore small businesses.

In the NV interview, he discusses how we operate during the war, why neutrality is essential for safety, how quick decision-making saves lives, and which new programmes help people learn new skills and rebuild their livelihoods.

This is a look at our work from the inside and why it is important for everyone to know about it.
