The Legacy of the Maidan
Ukrainian Engagement in Europe
Deutsche Fassung
Abstract
Many Ukrainian migrants and refugees in Germany actively support their homeland, even if they do not see their personal future in Ukraine. They organise demonstrations, collect donations, and take humanitarian aid and civil defence supplies to Ukraine. For many, this commitment stems from their experiences on the Euromaidan. In 2014, they learned to stand up for their own values and convictions and to act collectively. Networks formed at that time have become the nucleus of transnational aid. Organisations such as the Blau-Gelbes Kreuz in Cologne or Ukraine-Hilfe Berlin demonstrate just how effective these networks are.
