The EVZ Foundation responded swiftly to the escalation of the Russian attack on Ukraine on February 24, 2022, by creating a Solidarity Budget of 800,000 euros to support the work of civil society in Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia. One of our key local partners is the Belarusian exile organization BYSOL. Founded in 2020 in response to the brutal repression of democratic civil society in Belarus, BYSOL operates from Vilnius, working to empower young Belarusian initiatives and activists in the fields of human rights and the culture of remembrance. Currently, projects from Belarus, Lithuania, Poland, Georgia, and Germany can apply to BYSOL for funding.
