Harm Reduction During Wartime in Ukraine

An interview with Anton Basenko, chair of the Ukrainian Network of People Who Use Drugs

The Russian aggression against Ukraine causes tremendous suffering for the Ukrainian people in general - and especially for vulnerable groups with special needs, such as people who use drugs. In this video interview Anton Basenko explains how their communities struggle to survive, how brave harm reduction workers save lives amid destruction of the war and how people in other countries can help them.
