Hunger, dead bodies on the streets and a 20-kilometer walk to get out of  besieged Mariupol — that was the first month of the war for 69-year-old city resident Liudmyla.

She managed to get to Ivano-Frankivsk, where she not only started a new life, but also works with a psychologist in a social and psychological assistance mobile team, which was launched by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). It is a service that provides support to survivors of domestic, gender-based violence and survivors of war-related violence or trauma.
