Description

Description

This case study shows how the Turkish Red Crescent strengthened community participation by partnering with existing Ukrainian Associations during the Ukraine Impacted Countries response. By shifting decision‑making to trusted community structures and investing in their capacity, the approach improved the relevance of assistance, built longer‑term resilience, and demonstrated the value of community‑led humanitarian action
