Cultural Refuge

Saving Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Online (SUCHO)

We are a group of cultural heritage professionals – librarians, archivists, researchers, programmers – working together to identify and archive at-risk sites, digital content, and data in Ukrainian cultural heritage institutions while the country is under attack. We are using a combination of technologies to crawl and archive sites and content, including the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine, the Browsertrix crawler and the ArchiveWeb.page browser extension and app of the Webrecorder project.

Art is Vital

The role of the humanities in humanitarian aid cannot be understated - translating, writing, painting, comedy, memes - they all have a part in creating safe spaces, helping to overcome trauma and find our way back to peace, through the power of compassion, spirituality, and emotion. Art needs rules, art has no borders, art is data.

All attendees, sponsors, partners, volunteers and staff at our hackathon are required to agree with the Hack Code of Conduct. Organisers will enforce this code throughout the event. We expect cooperation from all participants to ensure a safe environment for everybody.
