The AIC, who embraces diversity and whose mission is to build bridges across all nationalities and communities, strongly condemns the unprovoked military invasion of Ukraine. We deplore the loss of lives, the displacement of peoples and the economic and emotional impact of this war on all its victims, in Ukraine and beyond.
In line with our strong civic beliefs, we encourage our members and partners to help suffering communities in a concrete way. Here is a list of several organizations that you can contribute to, either financially or in kind:
