Filmfonds solidair met Oekraïne en Oekraïense filmmakers
International Coalition for filmmakers at risk schrijft:
While aware of the massive scale of the humanitarian disaster that the Russian army’s invasion of Ukraine is already causing, and of our own limited resources, ICFR stands by the Ukrainian film community, and the Ukrainian people, in such trying times. ICFR, its founding partners and its wider network, put themselves at the disposal of Ukrainian filmmakers now. We will not be answering the question of what Ukrainian colleagues need, we will be there for them as they define their requests. Lees meer:

De Europese Fondsdirecteuren, verenigd in de EFAD verklaart zijn solidariteit:
EFAD members affirm that they stand in solidarity with the Ukrainian people following the invasion of Ukraine which violates the territorial integrity of a sovereign nation. The core values of our association are to defend democracy, freedom of expression and freedom of artistic creativity as well as the respect of human rights. Each of these principles is now under threat in Ukraine. Lees meer:
