Historian Ekaterina Malygina describes SUCHO - Saving Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Online " an international initiative by more than 1,500 volunteer historians, archivists, librarians, and humanities researchers whose mission is to provide digital support, server space, equipment, and training resources to their colleagues in Ukrainian cultural institutions.

The goal is to support the preservation of Ukrainian culture as hundreds of historic buildings, museums, libraries, archives, and websites are being damaged or destroyed by the Russian invasion. An additional goal is to document destruction of these institutions, themselves in the war.

SUCHO was created at the onset of the invasion as a collaboration between Anna Kijas (Tufts University, US), Quinn Dombrowski (Stanford University, US) and Sebastian Majstorovic (European University Institute, Italy). It is a global grassroots initiative of over 1500 volunteers around the world.

Ekaterina works in SUCHO as an archiving and digitization expert, helping cultural institutions to digitize their data and record objects in their care of cultural importance, as well as to provide necessary equipment.
