Temat: Re: [Eadh-topics] from Maciej Maryl, Warsaw: offer to Ukrainian researchers entering Poland. Please share.
Dear All,
congratulations on a very thoughtfully designed and worded initiative - first the statement on https://www.distant-reading.net/ukraine/ and then of course this important first concrete initiative at relieving some of the hardship faced by Ukranian researchers.
I have always found the engagement of scholarly organizations in current political matters to be a complicated and tricky thing. To my mind many of the statements issued by such organizations in the recent past have smacked of a political and moral self-righteousness or wokeness-inspired flagellantism that comes just a bit too cheaply, and noticeably in US-academia's rhetorical currency.
Against that backdrop your carefully worded and sincere approach in reaction to the current humanitarian and political catastrophe in Europe stands out as a sincere, genuine and mature response. A highly commendable, important effort - hats off to the initiators and supporters.
Best,
Chris

Dear all,
many thanks to all for your input to our statement. I have tried to take all suggestions into account and hope to have found a good compromise. The statement is now online: https://www.distant-reading.net/ukraine/
There is no need, I believe, that we sign the statment individually, as we appear to have consensus that we want to publish this as a joint statement of our two European-level projects.
Let's spread our message via Twitter as well. I hope the cumulated effect of all these statements could in the end have some weight, both in terms of a universal condemnation of Russia's act of aggression and as moral support for the people in Ukraine.
But let's not forget that Ukraine also needs very concrete support so please consider donating to an organization of your choice.
Best wishes,
Christof

Dear all,
many thanks for your many statements of support and for your important perspectives on the invasion of Ukraine by Russia. It is really good to see so much solidarity in our group.
I'm very much in favor of putting up a statement quickly on our website. And I thank Maciej for the lead on this with NEP4DISSENT.
You are all welcome to check and edit the draft statement you can find here:
https://cryptpad.fr/pad/#/2/pad/edit/FovGZqAMyStx-ekMjkGGJn-0/embed/
The current text is a combination of our message with Maciej's statement. Feel free to modify it but let's keep in mind to keep it short, keep it simple, keep it clear.
Also, do let me know if you have trouble accessing the document; it should be available without login. And: our circle is already wide, so please don't share this link beyond our group.
The goal would be to put this out tomorrow by noontime.
Best wishes,
Christof

Dear friends and colleagues,
We are probably all following the news regarding the situation in Ukraine, not far from Krákow, Iasi, Vienna, or Budapest, where many of us live and work.
It is heartbreaking to see something like this can happen today, when we have been working together closely and productively for many years with colleagues across Europe in the widest sense, including in Urkaine and Russia, whether in the COST Action, in CLS INFRA or in other contexts.
Science doesn't know nationalities or borders. We are all united by science. And science, like people, needs peace, freedom and autonomy to thrive.
If you have ideas about what we could do, as pan-European projects, or if you know statements from the European level we could amplify, please let us know.
Our thoughts are with the people in Ukraine and our hopes are for a peaceful Europe.
Christof, Carolin and Maciej
