The Importance of African Diaspora Humanitarianism in Times of Crises The African diasporas are key humanitarian actors and stakeholders in humanitarian response, often complementing and filling in gaps left by institutional humanitarian partners (DEMAC 2018, Shabaka EU DiF 2021). Diasporas deliver interventions across all stages of the humanitarian-development-peace nexus, from pre-crisis resilience building, emergency response, to post-crisis recovery and reconstruction.

This case study is part of the Diaspora Emergency Action and Coordination Platform‘s (DEMAC) „Research study on diaspora humanitarian response and engagement“. Ukraine has been blighted by unrest and conflict for decades with many Ukrainians leaving to seek a better life elsewhere. Over 1 million people have received humanitarian assistance in 2020, with the focus on the conflict-affected eastern Ukraine, in addition to the COVID-19 response.

The year 2020 will forever be engraved in our minds as the beginning of one of the greatest health crises known to mankind: the COVID‐19 pandemic. It has changed the world, our economies, our social lives, our ability to move freely and has affected all sectors of activity. For a non-profit organisation like ADEPT and its members, the pandemic has brought new challenges and major changes, both internally and externally. She forced us to use creative and innovative approaches to perform our missions, while staying safe, due to social distancing rules.
