Ukraine Appeal
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has thrust our profession into the frontline, both to bear testimony to events on the ground, and in the information war for the truth. The NUJ Netherlands branch met this week to urge our members to back the NUJ’s appeal to support the safety fund and to remind journalists travelling to Ukraine of measures to enhance their safety.
Please check out the IFJ appeal: Journalists in Ukraine are under fire. They need your solidarity
You may also wish to give to the Rory Peck Trust, an international NGO promoting the safety of freelance
journalists.
