Abstract

This editorial presents the activities of 9 universities of the University Alliance “European University of the Seas” (SEAEU) in assisting their colleagues from Ukrainian universities after the beginning of the War in Ukraine. As the universities come from different parts of Europe, they were affected by the War in very different ways – some being neighbours to Ukraine (Poland) and some being far away from the migrant route from Ukraine (Malta). Therefore, they have been affected in different ways by the current War in Europe, but they all engaged their resources to provide academic and humanitarian help to their academic colleagues in Ukraine. All activities were presented and publicised during the governance meeting of the SEA-EU Alliance in Gdańsk in 2023; here we provide an update about our assistance to Ukrainian colleagues.
