Germany might not share a border with Ukraine like Poland or Romania, who are stepping up their efforts to welcome Ukrainian refugees, but that doesn’t mean German cities are not ready to express their solidarity, join forces and not only send assistance but also welcome their share of refugees.

In Hanover, civil society, city administration and local stakeholders are joining forces to welcome Ukrainian refugees. Frankfurt am Main, Dortmund and Cologne are also planning and executing actions in support of Ukraine.

Several actions, demonstrations and concerts took place and are planned for the future, as well as which, cities are stepping up to provide the best care possible for those in need and to welcome as many Ukrainian refugees as possible.
