The city of Kostiantynivka, Ukraine, is naming a street after New Zealand aid worker Andrew Bagshaw in honour of the lives he saved.
Bagshaw died in Ukraine in January while working as a volunteer.
He is also being awarded a Civic Peace Award by Christchurch's mayor. It will be presented at a memorial T20 cricket match at Hagley Oval on Friday.
Bagshaw's friends and family will be playing an "all-star" team - which includes White Fern Kate Anderson and former Black Cap Andrew Ellis.
Andrew Bagshaw's dad, Phil Bagshaw, spoke to Corin Dann.
