In this episode of the We Are PoWEr Podcast, we speak with Marianna Vaszilyiv, the driving force behind United for Ukraine an organisation that supports displaced Ukrainians with employment opportunities, courses, and essential services since the 2022 Russian invasion.

Marianna shares how what started as a two-week support initiative quickly evolved into a long-term, high-impact operation.
