【ICYE連盟 ウクライナ侵攻に関する声明を発表】

2022.3.3コラム

第二次世界大戦後に世界の平和再構築を目指し、国際的なボランティア交換事業を開始したICYE連盟。
現在のロシア政府によるウクライナ侵攻は、世界秩序を乱す非難すべき行動だと考えます。
政策決定者に向けて、この事実を重く受け止め、影響を受けている全ての人々に支援を届けるよう、早急な対応を求める声明を下記の通り発表しました。

A call for peace

War is never a way to solve a conflict – only dialogue and the appreciation of difference. Not in the Ukraine nor in any other part of the world. We urge decision makers all over the world to end armed conflicts, become active partners on global disarmament, contribute to de-escalation and commit to transnational cooperation. We also call for journalists to end their racist coverage of the current refugee situation, while we call on Ukraine’s neighbouring countries to extend the same open arms to people of colour fleeing from Ukraine. We ask those in our network to actively share resources on how to support those most marginalised in Ukraine, including LGBTQ+ communities, women, Black and POC students, people with disabilities, etc.

ICYE is a Federation of members in 40 countries worldwide who contribute to peace and solidarity through exchanges and international volunteering. For more than 70 years, we have been promoting intercultural understanding, inclusion and social justice, while building bridges between people in all their diversity. We express our solidarity and engagement along with activists everywhere in the world to promote peace and non-violent conflict resolution.
