How German twin cities help strengthen the resilience of frontline Zaporizhzhia

For Zaporizhzhia, twinning partnership with Magdeburg has always been one of the most fruitful inter-municipal relations. Before the full-scale invasion, our cities implemented collaborative cultural projects and exchanged experiences in municipal management.

Today, German partners are helping strengthen the capacity of utilities and social services in the frontline Zaporizhzhia. Additionally, two groups of school students enjoyed their vacations in a summer camp at the International Youth Meeting Center in Magdeburg.

To learn more about the humanitarian and project cooperation between Zaporizhzhia and Magdeburg, please refer to this publication.

We extend our most sincere gratitude to German friends and partners for their solidarity and shared values, unwavering support, and understanding. Thank you for your contribution to the resilience of Zaporizhzhia and the victory of Ukraine.
