Vivendi, a media and communications group, is sensitive to the situation that the people of Ukraine are undergoing. Havas and Gameloft have almost 800 employees in Ukraine. In addition to the action that the Group is taking, Vivendi’s Management Board has decided to allocate complementary funding, alongside Vivendi Create Joy initiatives, for projects involving post-traumatic psychological support for Ukrainians who have found refuge in Europe and/or support for young Ukrainian artists (filmmakers, musicians, writers, journalists, content creators, etc.) in exile in Europe. This call for projects stems from the Vivendi Group’s eagerness to support Ukrainians who have been forced to flee their country and are struggling with psychological disorders as a result, and to support young Ukrainian artists in exile. The Management Board has allocated an exceptional funding for projects providing help and support to Ukrainian refugees.
Project nature and criteria The projects selected by Vivendi Create Joy will need to meet the following criteria:
▪ Beneficiaries are Ukrainian teenagers and young adults, and/or young Ukrainian artists in
exile and/or suffering from traumatic shocks due to the war, aged 11 to 25
▪ The projects are based in France, Great Britain, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria and Hungary,
and generally in Europe (in countries that have taken in Ukrainian refugees)
▪ The projects provide post-traumatic psychological support, ideally around cultural endeavors
▪ The projects support Ukrainian artists (filmmakers, musicians, writers, journalists, content
