The Ukrainian National Information Service (UNIS), UCCA's Washington, D.C.-based public affairs, has prepared a series of infographics to help advocate for Ukraine-related issues. The goal of this #SupportUkraine! campaign is to seek support for Ukraine's immediate needs – security assistance; increased sanctions against Russia; deter Russian propaganda and disinformation; defending religious and human rights in Ukraine’s occupied territories; and, humanitarian assistance for Ukraine's nearly 2 million internally displaced persons.

You can read more about #SupportUkraine! in the September Bulletin (link above).

Join us online on Saturday, September 26, 2020, for a special 75th Year retrospective webinar: The Ukrainian Experience in 1945.

This critical examination will look at the myriad circumstances/situations in which Ukrainians found themselves during the watershed year of 1945 – from the Nazi concentration camps or 'slave labor' factories and various military formations operating globally at the beginning of the stated time period to the Soviet labor camps and Displaced Persons ‘lagers’ at the end of the self same period, with a glimpse at matters in Western Ukraine and Eastern Ukraine as well as in the diaspora of the time. The discussion will also hear an examination on the work of The Ukrainian Quarterly, which also began its efforts as the premier English-language scholarly journal on Ukrainian affairs in 1945.

We encourage you to RSVP at your earliest convenience. For further information, kindly contact either Walter Zaryckyj, UA Historical Encounters Series Program Coordinator: waz2102@caa.columbia.edu, or Andrij Dobriansky UA Historical Encounters Series Technical Coordinator: drijmail@gmail.com.
