MDPI statement and support for the citizens and residents of Ukraine

It is with deep sadness we follow the developments in Ukraine and Russia. We express our heartfelt solidarity and support to the citizens and residents of Ukraine, their families, friends, loved ones and colleagues.

At MDPI, we are focusing our efforts on providing support to the community of authors, reviewers and editors affiliated with Ukrainian institutions.

We have made a direct donation to Caritas.org to help with the Ukrainian refugee crisis. Caritas specifically helps provide food, medicine, and temporary accommodation for thousands of refugees fleeing Ukraine.

Our mission is to foster open scientific exchange in all forms, across all disciplines. While headquartered in Switzerland, we have offices worldwide, in Romania, Poland, Serbia, the UK, Spain, Canada, Singapore, Japan, Thailand, and China, and we are united in our strong belief that scientific collaborations and global bonds are a driver for peace.

On behalf of MDPI,

Delia Mihaila
Chief Executive Officer
