| Title | NGOs' Role in Providing Assistance to Ukrainian Displaced Persons in Austria: A Comparative Analysis |
| Summary | Against the backdrop of the global urgency of forced migration, the Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine has ushered in unprecedented challenges, provoking an active response from non-governmental organizations (NGOs). This research focuses on analyzing the efforts of international, national, and Ukrainian NGOs in providing assistance to Ukrainian displaced persons in Austria, taking into account Austria’s extensive history as a host country. This thesis builds on qualitative methods, incorporating an analysis of existing literature and interviews with representatives from NGOs relevant to this study. According to the interviews, international NGOs contribute indirectly to refugee governance in Austria through advocacy and raising awareness, while national organizations also engage in advocacy efforts and address specific needs. Ukrainian NGOs focus more on language, culture, and identity needs, facilitating integration into Austrian society. Thus, this thesis also contributes to the ongoing efforts to help Ukrainian displaced individuals in Austria. |
