The war in Ukraine caused the departure of at least five million people.

France welcomes around 100,000. This week, we invite you to meet the refugees or those around them.

Fourth episode, welcoming the artists.

Recently, the Ministry of Culture released a support fund to set up an emergency reception system for Ukrainian artists fleeing the war.

This program is managed in partnership with associations such as

and the Cité internationale universitaire de Paris.

Among other things, it makes it possible to organize cultural events to raise public awareness of what is happening in Ukraine and/or to raise funds to support Ukrainian artists.
