This will add to our resources and we will be able to help journalists in a stable way. The amount of the contribution is not fixed, and the funds raised will be spent to ensure the proper functioning of the Ukrainian media.
Assistance provided by Lviv Media Forum:
- evacuation of journalists and their relatives from regions where active hostilities continue;
- shelter in Lviv, where media representatives who have been forced to leave their homes can live and work;
- financial assistance to support and restart editorial offices;
- equipment for editorial work;
- cybersecurity consultations, protection of Ukrainian media sites;
- unblocking the pages of Ukrainian editorial offices and journalists on Facebook and Instagram and establishing additional protection against blocking;
- consultations of professional psychologists;
- search for personal protective equipment.
During the 60 days of the war, we provided shelter and a place to work in Lviv for more than 160 journalists, as well as assisted 82 editorial offices.
The organization is developing strategic decisions to ensure that the Ukrainian media is ready for the challenges of both wartime and postwar. Cartridges will be able to learn more about the results of our activities.
It is the media that documents and covers Russia's ugly and brutal crimes. The world would not have learned about the atrocities in Mariupol if not for the reports of journalists Evgen Maloletka and Myroslav Chernov. Photojournalist Stas Kozliuk and his colleagues has captured the aftermath of the massacres in Bucha, Gostomel and Irpin. Hundreds of their colleagues continue to work often as the only source of information in the area of hostilities and occupation.
Despite the danger to their lives, journalists continue to tell the truth. Their activities are approaching the end of the era of Russian terror in the world. The plots they shot, gigabytes of photos, videos, the written texts would be evidence for the international tribunal.
The voice of Ukrainian independent journalism should be as loud as possible. Become ambassadors of truth — support the development of Ukrainian media.
