How Do We Begin Building a Strong Country Now? Discussion and the WARNIAKANNIA Concert in Kremenchuk

How Do We Begin Building a Strong Country Now? Discussion and the WARNIAKANNIA Concert in Kremenchuk

28 November 2023

We all believe in winning and dream of Ukraine becoming strong and developed after the war. But right now, our goal is to build our nation amid a full-scale war. Russian aggression extends beyond the frontline, and its destructive effects linger even after the guns fall silent. So, Ukraine must devise a strategy to protect its information, political, cultural, and social domains to preserve its achievements and tackle issues like government distrust, corruption, and cultural divides among social strata.

 

How do we rebuild our country and enhance its European direction? What role will Ukraine play globally, and what steps can we take today?


Joining us for this discussion are Mykola Davydiuk, a political scientist and the author behind books like How Putin’s Propaganda Works and How to Make Ukraine Successful, and Anton Sliepakov, the frontman of the band VGNVZH and a contributor to the music charity project WARNIAKANANIA.

 

Guiding the conversation will be Oleh Ovcharenko, a dialogue facilitator and historian.

 

Let's connect on December 9 at 2 PM in Kremenchuk. The meeting details will be sent to registered participants – please find the registration form here.
