De Russische invasie van Oekraïne roept een reeks emoties op: verdriet, woede, angst en meer. We lezen elke dag het nieuws en zouden willen dat we meer konden doen om te helpen. Als educatieve non-profitorganisatie kunnen we onszelf en onze lezers misschien het beste eraan herinneren dat vrede altijd mogelijk is, de overgrote meerderheid van de mensen verzet zich tegen het doden, zelfs de meest gewelddadige primaten zijn in staat tot verandering, er zijn stappen die we allemaal kunnen nemen om onze verschillen te overbruggen, en activisme kan de wereld een betere plek maken.
We hebben onderstaande artikelen verzameld om u te helpen de wortels van vrede, oorlog en verzoening te begrijpen; betrokken raken bij activisme; en steun uw welzijn en dat van uw kinderen, inclusief herinneringen aan menselijke goedheid in tijden van conflict.
Als je een directere manier wilt vinden om de bevolking van Oekraïne te ondersteunen, hebben onze vrienden bij KQED deze uitstekende lijst gemaakt van organisaties die de menselijke crises aanpakken die oorlog veroorzaakt. We hopen dat u overweegt een van hen te doneren.
