Meeting with Volodymyr Viatrovych

One of the key events of the day was a meeting with Volodymyr Viatrovych — historian, publicist, author of 14 books on the history of 20th-century Ukraine and one of the organizers of Ukraine’s decommunization policy.

The topic of the meeting was “The Kharkiv House ‘Slovo’ — in Literature, History and Memory.” The conversation focused on the formation of values through history, the importance of studying the past for understanding contemporary Ukraine, preserving the memory of key figures, and raising responsible citizens capable of valuing and defending their rights.
