Jako redakcje magazynów architektonicznych, które zawsze zajmowały się sprawami społecznymi, wspieramy Ukraińców wszelkimi dostępnymi nam środkami – pisze w otwartym liście do międzynarodowego środowiska architektonicznego Marcin Szczelina, założyciel pisma „Architecture Snob”, i wymienia, co można zrobić, by choć symbolicznie przeciwstawić się rosyjskiej agresji. Pod apelem podpisali się przedstawiciele wiodących magazynów architektonicznych z całego świata, w tym Ewa P. Porębska, redaktor naczelna „Architektury-murator”. Poniżej publikujemy jego pełną treść w języku angielskim. To The International Architecture Community and Beyond,As architecture magazines that have always been engaged in social issues, we take action to oppose the Russian invasion of Ukraine and support Ukrainians by all means we have. Killing innocent people, violating human rights, destroying cities and disinformation actions must be stopped by all means. We all have a role to play.All independent media have a great task in stopping fake news by verifying sources and providing the facts. The disinformation campaign has been being led by Russia for many years to destabilize Europe. The Internet and Social Media Research Institute noticed that within two days, most of the Polish anti-vaxxers' social media accounts have turned to anti-Ukrainian accounts. The Russian invasion is happening also on the internet and is worldwide. There is an urge to use all possible media platforms to share reliable information about the war.As an architecture media and community, we can provide help for Ukraine and people fleeing from Ukraine. Check what can be done in your country – write a letter to your authorities, donate money, organize a fund. Ask yourself how you can help Ukrainian architects and other professionals. Even if the war stops today, the crisis will take months, if not years. People will need housing and jobs. Maybe you are able to hire an architecture professional from Ukraine.We boycott Russian architecture, companies, money and means of production. We call you to do the same. We are aware that not all Russians are pro-Putin, but sanctions of any kind – even small ones – help the cause. People in Russia must feel pressure to act against the dictator. The whole of Europe must stand together against Putin’s terror and imperialism.No more war!Слава Україн!
