“As the crisis in Ukraine rapidly escalates, the ability for media to operate freely and safely and the fundamental protection of human rights have never been more critical.

“The Thomson Reuters Foundation is committed to fostering a free media ecosystem and has worked with independent media in Ukraine for 30 years. We are working tirelessly with our consortium of partners to review ways in which we can continue to provide support, and help journalists to fulfil their vital mission of free, fair and unbiased reporting.

“Our primary concern is the welfare of journalists and media practitioners, and we remain in regular contact with our partners on the ground to coordinate and amplify our impact as the emergency continues to unfold.”
