Amid the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, she has been assisting  refugees in Poland by hosting a Ukrainian family, setting up and running a shelter for women and children, and organizing transport and accommodation abroad.

In a post on her Facebook account Zuzanna wrote: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Earlier this week I traveled from Praga, to Praha , where I received the Aspen CE Madeleine K. Albright Leadership Award. As thrilled as I am to have been nominated, I am only a representative of a larger movement and believe this is a collective recognition that goes to everyone who was out there day and night welcoming our Ukrainian friends.

Now the real work begins to ensure that we can sustain this determination and solidarity that was on display in the early months since the russian aggression. Central European countries will grapple with consequences of the war for years to come and we must show a united front. That\u2019s why I am extremely thankful to the Aspen Institute Central Europe<\/a> for bringing together great thinkers from the region and highlighting the importance of free Ukraine.

And congratulations to my fellow laureate, Jana Hlav\u00e1\u010dov\u00e1<\/a>, a patients\u2019 rights advocate, who was coordinating Czech\u2019s humanitarian response and provision of medical supplies to Ukraine”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
