Life for many Ukrainians changed drastically after Russia’s invasion on February 24, 2022. Refugees face ongoing hardships; Maryna Chernovolenko, who fled Mariupol, now lives in Barcelona with her family and misses her former life. Aleksander, another refugee, experienced displacement across several countries before settling in Vienna. Globally, over ten million Ukrainians remain unable to return home, with Germany becoming the largest host country for refugees, followed by Poland and the Czech Republic. While European nations offer support, views on Ukraine’s future vary; some advocate for full freedom, while others push for an early end to the war and neutrality. In terms of aid, Germany is leading in bilateral military assistance, and Spain has committed to providing long-term military support to Ukraine.

PULSE is an initiative for cross-border collaborative journalism in Europe co-funded by the European Commission under Grant Agreement n. PO 4500158093.

PULSE is an initiative coordinated by OBCT that has been promoting intensive journalistic cross-border collaborations in Europe since 2024. Its main aim is to help strengthen the European public sphere by reporting on and telling stories from new and diverse perspectives.

At the heart of PULSE are 10 leading national news outlets (Delfi – Lithuania, Deník Referendum – Czechia, Der Standard – Austria, EfSyn – Greece, El Confidencial – Spain, Gazeta Wyborcza – Poland, HotNews – Romania, HVG – Hungary, Il Sole 24 Ore – Italy, Mediapool – Bulgaria) and three transnational organisations, including OBCT , n-ost and Voxeurop .

Additional outlets and journalists are involved as associate partners, including EUobserver , Føljeton (Denmark), H-Alter (Croatia), Levila (Estonia), Rubryka (Ukraine), and The Journal Investigates (Ireland).

PULSE is driven by a sort of virtual transnational newsroom made up of journalists from all the publications involved. It collaboratively produces new journalistic content on European issues on a daily basis, coming in many different languages. The editorial output amounts to over a thousand publications per year, mostly in article form.

PULSE also runs 4 thematic networks open to any European journalist interested in crucial issues such as EU enlargement, relations between the EU and other global powers, the EU’s green transition, or media and the information society. These networks function as online communities and periodically publish calls for pitches.
