To mark the birthday of our patron, the Pylyp Orlyk Foundation is initiating Pylyp Orlyk Week — a series of events uniting history, culture and a contemporary perspective on Ukrainian statehood.

On October 17, 2025, the “Autumn Evening of Freedom” was held at the Pylyp Orlyk Foundation space — an event dedicated to the 35th anniversary of the Granite Revolution.

September 2025 was a month of active cultural and educational activities for the Pylyp Orlyk Foundation in the Czech Republic. Together with the Ukrainian Institute in Prague and other partners, the Foundation implemented a number of initiatives aimed at supporting the Ukrainian community abroad, preserving national identity and strengthening Ukraine’s presence in Europe.

The Pylyp Orlyk Foundation together with the Ukrainian Institute in Prague has for the first time initiated a mentorship programme for Ukrainian history teachers abroad. The programme will run for a year and will reach at least 120 Ukrainian children temporarily residing in the Czech Republic.
