The University of Antwerp stands shoulder to shoulder with the victims of the Russian war violence in Ukraine. UAntwerpen wants to offer the support that is needed, both to Ukrainian universities and to members of the Russian academic community who strongly dissaprove the aggression against Ukraine.
At the moment, there is a great need for the reception of war refugees from Ukraine. UAntwerpen is setting up a fund to provide shelter and assistance close by, to students, academics and their families.
