During the inauguration event, the President of the European Parliament stated: “We want to do everything in our power to support Ukrainians, whose courage has astounded us. Offering this space to the Ukrainian struggle is a concrete act of solidarity.”

The space is used to coordinate Ukrainian civil society action (organising demonstrations, press conferences, etc.) and to provide psychological and administrative support to refugees from Ukraine now arriving in Belgium (job seeking, registering at municipal offices).

Marta Barandiy, founder of the NGO Promote Ukraine, participated in the inauguration with the President of the European Parliament.
