Our long time partner Europa Nostra is joining forces with Global Heritage Fund in launching a donation campaign to support the defenders of cultural heritage in Ukraine as well as those working in the cultural heritage world who have been rendered refugees in their escape from Russia’s brutal aggression.
Together with other international and European partners, they are actively working to ensure that Ukraine’s history will not be erased or rewritten. This includes providing emergency support for people working for museums, sites and cultural institutions.
Europa Nostra will distribute all funds raised to organisations and individuals in Ukraine – directly or through our members and partners in Poland, Romania or elsewhere in Europe – who are assisting heritage custodians who are trying to save Ukraine’s cultural treasures. They will also aim to provide support to displaced heritage professionals who are trying to escape violence and death, within or outside Ukraine.
