Dear comrades and friends,
We are approaching the fifth year of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, and the war continues to destroy our communities. This winter, millions of people face continuous shelling, surviving weeks without electricity, heating, and sometimes even without water.
Meanwhile, our comrades continue to fight on the front line in extreme conditions, many of them are injured, while others give their lives. We need your solidarity to strengthen Ukrainian anti-authoritarian resistance to Russian imperialism.
From February 20 to March 6, we urge friends, comrades and anti-authoritarian groups around the world to take part in a 2-week campaign.
We urge you to organize:
– public demonstrations or direct action – charity concerts, film screenings, exhibitions or discussions,
– fundraising campaigns,
– street actions such as graffiti or installations
Possible topics for speeches and discussions: the impact of Russian propaganda and law policy in the West, the Russian shadow fleet and its impact on the environment; risks of international security and imperial violence; anarchist self-organization and mutual assistance; European rearmament and military service; police violence and repression; latest news about the situation in Ukraine; armed struggle and antimilitarism, etc.
Even small support matters. Since 2022, each demonstration and every action of solidarity helps to support the visibility of Ukrainian resistance and give us strength to continue the fight, despite the humanitarian crisis and daily missile and drone attacks by Russia.
We believe in the exchange of practices, experiences and ideas across borders. The global growth of far-right movements makes international solidarity more urgent than ever. Supporting Ukrainians who resist the Russian invasion should follow should side with support for refugees and migrants around the world, as well as to confront authoritarian and nationalist forces at the global level.
Our community is interested in participating in your activities, sharing knowledge, conducting complex discussions and supporting your initiatives in all possible ways. Together we can strengthen the transnational network of anti-authoritarian solidarity, which goes beyond borders and languages.
2 weeks: February 20 – March 6
Send us links, photos and videos from your activities.
You can translate this call into other languages. Please share it with your local activist/anti-authoritarian media and let us know.

Editorial note: The Organise Editorial Collective holds a multitude of perspectives on the situation faced by anarchists through the war in Ukraine, regardless we believe that it is of vital importance that we share the voice of fellow anarchists. It is in this spirit we hope you consider sharing the above statement and consider organising events and have the difficult discussions around militarism, occupation, and warfare that we are afforded so distant from the battlefields of Ukraine, Rojava, Chiapas, Gaza, Myanmar, and so on…
