Open Cities and Villages in the media

5 May 2023

Through the Open Cities and Villages project – the Mapuj Pomoc and local government initiative – we aim to involve job centers and social assistance centers in mapping. We want to provide humanitarian knowledge to people who have frequent contact with refugees but may not always have effective tools to support them. At the same time, we are creating a network of contacts for future activities aimed at rebuilding Ukraine.

The Open Cities and Villages campaign was launched on April 18th in Kielce, starting with the Świętokrzyskie region.
