In the 1990s, a significant focus of humanitarian efforts in Belarus was improving the health of children affected by the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. This included initiatives such as organising holidays in Austria for thousands of children to support their physical and psychological recovery.
Caritas Belarus has been at the forefront of providing care and assistance to vulnerable groups in the country. The organisation provides free lunches, shelters for orphans and social orphans, and programmes to facilitate the integration of children and young people with disabilities into society.
