Asking myself since last week what I can do, what we all can do more... so here I'd like to start a discussion thread of ways the tourism industry can help Ukraine 💛 💙- and everyone in travel who is affected.

Personally, I am offering a free guest room in my home to a tourism or any other Ukraine student in need. Maybe there are more of us with a similar wish.
So far I have found these platforms / initiatives to join & support, and in travel, I'm sure there is more!
Please add in the thread if you know of any or have further ideas:

Hi, I'm Carolyn, the CEO/Editor-in-Chief of JourneyWoman, a women's solo travel publication. Every year we publish a feature for International Women's Day celebrating women and this year we are looking tor photographs and stories of women who make travel possible, past and present. This could be guides, tour directors, healthcare workers, drivers, small business owners, etc. This is an opportunity to show our appreciation and recognize everyone who contributes to making travel possible.
More information is on our site including a form to upload your photos and stories. We'll be publishing finalists on March 8, International Women's Day. Thank you!
