Анотація

The article investigates the peculiarities of the social status and reintegration processes of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Ukraine amidst the Russo-Ukrainian war. It analyzes the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of IDPs, as well as the key needs and challenges they face. It is revealed that the main problems of IDPs include financial instability and insufficient housing availability. The positive aspects of the state policy towards IDPs are separately examined, including the active implementation of digitalization mechanisms through the "Diia" portal. Survey results indicate a positive attitude of Ukrainians towards IDPs, creating favorable conditions for their integration into new communities. The authors emphasize the necessity of developing comprehensive state programs to support the reintegration of IDPs, including the creation of new housing and ensuring stable employment. The importance of international cooperation in addressing IDP issues and the country's post-war recovery is highlighted. The article also discusses the prospects and challenges in the return of Ukrainian refugees who have migrated to EU countries and the need to create conditions for their repatriation. A comparative analysis was also applied to identify differences in the social status of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in various regions of Ukraine. It was found that IDPs often face problems integrating into new communities, particularly due to the lack of permanent housing, difficulties in finding employment, and limited access to social services and education. This creates a risk of social isolation and poverty. It has been established that many IDPs suffer from psychological trauma related to the violence and losses they have experienced. This complicates their adaptation and requires the provision of psychological support and rehabilitation programs. An assessment of state policy regarding support for IDPs revealed that despite significant government efforts, there are many problems in implementing assistance programs due to bureaucratic hurdles, insufficient funding, and a lack of coordination between different levels of government.
