Please join us at the public ForumRecovery After Total War

27–28 May 2026 Odessa-Zoom

Wars often end as abruptly as they began. After war, Ukraine will face not only trauma, but militarism, shrinking freedoms, political cynicism, moral fatigue, and new social fractures. How it reckons with these will determine its fate in the years to come.

We are bringing together scholars, soldiers, lawyers, veterans, diplomats, journalists, and public voices from Ukraine and the wider world to confront the hardest questions Ukraine will face after war.

With Gennadiy Druzenko, Ella Libanova, Ganna Yudkivska, Piotr Kulpa, Brendan Simms, Evgeniy Stepanov, Marina Gribanova, Khalid Sheptitsky, David Williams, Anne van Aaken, and others.

Register to join us in Odessa or online. Hurry: seating is limited and filling quickly.
