Moreover, hosting fatigue is increasing after two years and refugees are facing rising inflation and scarcity of affordable housing. Current changes planned for the temporary protection measures in the EU and Poland have increased refugees’ anxiety around the uncertainty of their futures in Poland. All these factors could prompt premature and unsafe returns to Ukraine, where the UN refugee agency (UNHCR) still advises against return.</p> <p>Migrants crossing into Poland from Belarus face great hardships at the border and in the forests between the formal Polish and Belarussian border crossings, in addition to challenges in obtaining timely and accurate legal information on asylum and legal stay.<br /><br /></p></div></div> <div><div><div class="country-effort-block block-padding country-effort-block--article-width block-width--default"> <ul class="country-efforts"> <li class="country-effort"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="education"></span> <div class="effort-number">6,296</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from our education programme</div> </div> </li> <li class="country-effort"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="food-security"></span> <div class="effort-number">38,234</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from our food security programme</div> </div> </li> <li class="country-effort"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="shelter"></span> <div class="effort-number">38,234</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from our shelter programme</div> </div> </li> <li class="country-effort"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="camp-management"></span> <div class="effort-number">38,234</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from our protection programme</div> </div> </li> <li class="country-effort"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="legal-help"></span> <div class="effort-number">70,073</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from our ICLA programme</div> </div> </li> <li class="country-effort"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="clean-water"></span> <div class="effort-number">38,234</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from our WASH programme</div> </div> </li> </ul> <ul class="country-efforts"> <li class="country-effort country-effort--other"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="effort-other"></span> <div class="effort-number">1,713</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from other NRC activities</div> </div> </li> </ul> </div></div><div> <div class="page-wrapper htmlblock block-padding block-width--default show--all show--all" > <div class="html richtext"> <p> </p> <h2>NRC's operations</h2> <p>In Poland, NRC works entirely through local partners.
