The Cité internationale wants to provide aid to Ukrainian students and researchers living on campus and who cannot return home for an indefinite period of time as well as to all residents affected by the conflict. The donations will help them to pay their accommodation fees as well as to help them financially, psychologically and materially. The Cité international is waiving its 10% management fee in support of this emergency campaign.
In order to support and aid the Ukrainian people, the Cité internationale is organising a collection of basic care products. This collection, organised for the Aide Civils Ukrainiens association will provide urgent aid to Ukranians on site who have been affected by the conflict. You can make your donations every day between 6pm and 8pm at the Maison internationale, located at 17 boulevard Jourdan in the 14th arrondissement in Paris. The collection is open to everyone.
On the 24th of February 2022, the Cité internationale took the first steps to help the students affected by the war in Ukraine, in particular the 20 Ukrainian students and researchers living on campus. Being sensitive to their situation, it has set up a counselling unit to help provide them with psychological aid. There is also the necessary logistical support for their administrative processes and personal initiatives. An exception of free and discounted rent for the month of march was put in place for students financially impacted by the war in Ukraine. Thanks to CROUS, the €1 meal was quickly set up. All of the campus residents, notably the Russian or Belarussian students and researchers currently on campus are being paid special attention to. They all have access to psychological aid within the medical unit at the Cité internationale.
Your donations will allow us to help Ukrainian students and researchers who cannot return home for an indefinite period of time as well as residents affected by the conflict in regard to daily expenses: rent, psychological aid, financial aid due to loss of income or family support etc.
The raison d’être of the Cité internationale universitaire de Paris, conceived of in 1925 after the First World War, is to bring together young talent from all over the world, to promote living together and to contribute to the construction of a peaceful world both for today and tomorrow. Loyal to its founding values, the Cité internationale universitaire de Paris is always actively promoting peace among its students and researchers from around the world.
Today we need your help to respond to the needs of Ukrainian students and researchers living on campus who see their future as being jeopardised.
Anyone can be a donor or benefactor in order to help Ukrainian students and researchers on campus or our residents who have been affected by the conflict. The donation can be in the name of a person, a business or a foundation (or an endowment fund).
Your donations will be allocated to Ukrainian students and researchers in need and those more generally affected by this crisis on campus. Cut off from their families by the violent conflict in their country, worried about their loved ones, they are confronted with material and financial difficulties (rent payments, food, transport). If the amount needed to cover their needs has already been collected then your donations will be put towards the priority personal actions for the well-being of our residents.
