The University of Trento condemns the invasion of Ukraine

The first article of our Charter states that our University, among other things, serves as an instrument of human development, democracy and social dignity. Russia's invasion of Ukraine is clearly in conflict with these goals and with the values and principles of our community. For this reason, the Rector, in agreement with the Academic Senate, has resolved to stand in solidarity with the Ukrainian people and to suspend new bilateral agreements with institutions linked to the Russian government. 

The university is a place of encounter that is committed to freedom of thought and expression: suspending collaborations with Russian institutions, for the first time in our history, is not a decision that we have taken lightly, but we will also continue to support the Russian academics who are suffering the consequences of a war they don't want to be part of. 

Fundraising for Afghanistan and Ukraine
