The RI Logistica Association set up a logistical solution providing Reasearch Infrastructures in Ukraine by replacing stolen/damaged equipment during the ongoing war also meeting the volume/magnitude needed to be transported.

  • Guidelines
  • Recipient information & registration
  • Successful Delivery of the First Donation to Ukraine: Building Research Capacity Together (December 13, 2024)
    • The first donation of scientific equipment from CERN, facilitated by the collaborative initiative of the EU-funded EURIZON project and the Copenhagen-based non-profit association RI.Logistica, successfully arrived at the National Science Center (NSC) KIPT in Kharkiv. This milestone marks a significant step in the “Ukraine Initiative,” which establishes a vital logistical pathway to aid Ukrainian research institutions in resuming operations amidst ongoing challenges. This humanitarian aid shipment was managed in compliance with international regulations as non-dual-use goods and coordinated by RI.Logistica in collaboration with several key partners. Through the collaboration between RI.Logistica and EURIZON, European research institutions and universities are encouraged to register on an electronic platform that matches equipment requests from Ukrainian research institutes with surplus or available resources from European institutes. Once a match is identified, the items are consolidated and shipped. RI.Logistica and EURIZON ensure support not only for shipping costs but also manage logistical complexities, including customs clearance and VAT exemptions. This streamlined process provides an efficient and effective way to deliver vital resources to Ukrainian researchers.
