A lot has been shared about how coworking spaces and leaders across Europe have stepped in to support the millions of humans that have been displaced by the war.
I’ve shared glowing examples of offering space & support to work, live, study, move, rest and receive medical attention in both Week 9 and Week 10‘s ThisWeekInCoworking.com newsletters. The newsletters also received responses from leaders from further afield who also want to support those affected.
When 70+ coworking leaders joined a Coworking IDEA call with the representatives from the Ukrainian Coworking Association to learn about what support people needed on the ground, we learned that many coworking spaces were mobilized and still actively supporting their local communities, including within a besieged city.
So we asked how we could directly support those community leaders.
Directly support coworking leaders on the ground in Ukraine.
Following the call Igor Dzhebyan, who’s both a VP at Ukrainian Coworking Association and CEO of coworking software platform andcards, began curating a list of vetted and active coworking & flex spaces that can accept online payments.
Below is that list, and it will automatically be updated as Igor and the Coworking Ukraine team get more links and info.
