Following the ICOM statement regarding the Russian invasion of Ukraine, CIPEG decided to publish its own statement in support of Ukrainian colleagues and Egyptian collections in Ukraine. In addition, we dedicated number 17 (2022) of the CIPEG e-News  to the important cultural heritage of Egyptian collections in Ukraine with an article by Mykola Tarasenko (Kyiv). The article was originally published in Dutch translation in Jan Koek (ed.), Mehen, Essays over het oude Egypte (2021-2022).
