Webinar: ‘Ukraine’s Displaced: Three Years On – Challenges and Prospects’

Description

Dear Colleagues,

It is our pleasure to invite you to the Prague Process Webinar ‘Ukraine’s Displaced: Three Years On – Challenges and Prospects’, taking place on Thursday, 6 March 2025 at 10:30-12:00 CET.

Three years after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, displacement remains one of the war’s most profound consequences. Millions of Ukrainians have sought refuge abroad or become internally displaced, facing continued uncertainty about their future. While some have found temporary stability in host countries, many struggle with integration, employment, and legal challenges. At the same time, discussions on return and reconstruction are gaining momentum, but security concerns, infrastructure destruction, and economic hardships continue to obstruct large-scale returns.

In this webinar, Dr Franck Düvell will present key trends in forced migration from Ukraine, revisiting existing displacement scenarios and analysing the impact of attacks on energy infrastructure on displacement trends. Dr Nataliia Huseiva and Dr Kateryna Sehida will assess the current state of internal displacement in Ukraine, highlighting major challenges and evolving dynamics. Mr Martin Wagner will examine the legal status of Ukrainians in the EU under temporary protection and explore the prospects for their legal stay under various scenarios. Meanwhile, Mr Jan Werner will share insights on the Czech Republic’s perspective on the displacement of Ukrainians.

The webinar will be moderated by Mr Radim Zak, Head of Region Eastern Europe and Central Asia and Head of the Prague Process Secretariat at ICMPD.
