Description
with guest Hyun Ju Jang of Korea Food for Hungry International.
In February 2022, the world reeled as Russia invaded Ukraine and triggered a massive humanitarian crisis. Eight million people have been displaced, fleeing their homes and seeking refuge in neighbouring countries.
In this episode, Hyun Ju Jang of Korea Food for Hungry International, an organization that has been working in Ukraine for years, offers a behind the scenes look at relief efforts. Jang takes us through the nuances of a Ukrainian refugee’s journey and the three priorities that aid organizations are upholding as they come alongside displaced peoples. Jang also reminds us all that, while these large numbers can be overwhelming, behind each number is an individual with their own story.
