Dima Khilchenko, DW Akademie and Colmena member, organized the purchase and delivery of solar power banks to Colmena media. This way, they will be able to charge their phones and continue working for some time during blackouts.

“The war proved that the media are not only a source of information, but also of security, since, through them, people are informed about the development of the war and any potential threat that may occur,”

says Khilchenko.

The delivery was carried out over a two-day period through direct distribution and by courier. Colmena’s journalists were grateful for the support in their reporting during this war.
