THE NATIONAL UNION OF
JOURNALISTS OF UKRAINE
Iryna Kramarenko is a young journalist from the Accent portal who attends events at the Zaporizhzhia Journalists’ Solidarity Center (JSC) of the National Union of Journalists of Ukraine (NUJU) because, according to her, she always finds interesting information here, and fruitfully communicates with colleagues.
After one of the meetings with war journalists, she worked directly in the co-working space of the JSC in order to quickly send information to the site.
It was here that a few months ago, Iryna Kramarenko was accepted into the ranks of the NUJU.
“To be with colleagues in difficult wartime, to feel their support, to improve professionally, and to work together for victory is journalistic solidarity in action,” said Iryna Kramarenko, explaining her decision to become a member of the journalistic creative community.
Call the Zaporizhzhia JSC at 096 277 5352 (Nataliya Kuzmenko and Valentyna Manzhura, the Zaporizhzhia JSC coordinators). The Center’s address is 152 Sobornyi Avenue.
