Creative organization D&AD will continue to accept Russian entries to its 2022 awards scheme but says it will donate fees from the country to the Art Director’s Club of Ukraine, following the invasion of the country by its neighbor.

The organization has told Adweek that will not exclude Russian creatives from its annual awards scheme, which highlights world-class work across commercial design, advertising, production and craft. So far, it has received 64 entries from Russia and 14 from Ukraine.
