Ukraine Refugee Pulse

The Ukraine Refugee Pulse tells the story of Ukrainian refugees living in Poland. We gained insights into their living conditions and shared them to see how the government and other organizations can address their needs.

Ukraine Refugee Pulse

The Ukraine Refugee Pulse addresses the urgent needs of Ukrainian refugees in Poland. This project offers a dynamic and responsive mapping of refugee needs by integrating the Social Progress Index’s insights on host community capacity with real-time feedback from refugees via a specialized survey tool developed by Play Verto. With more than 1,200 responses between October and December 2022, the Ukraine Refugee Pulse covered aspects from physical security to psychological wellbeing to see how to serve the refugees better.

As the number of refugees across the world increases as a result of conflict and climate change, understanding how to meet their needs and tap into their potential is vital. Get in touch if you would like to support this work as we expand it.

According to the Global Social Progress Index, since 2011, the European Union has improved on social progress while the US has declined. However, this is largely due to the US backslide as opposed to the EU making great strides. As we see, social progress has stalled across Europe with the most significant decreases in Austria (-0.77), Lithuania (-0.62), Spain (-0.49), Slovakia (-0.47) and Croatia (-0.41).

In the UK the social progress has declined by 0.39 points since 2011 and it has fallen 8 places in the ranks since 2011 to 21st in 2023. As in the US, the UK decline is largely driven by declining rights and inclusiveness.
