Ukraine has experienced immense physical destruction since Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022, impacting humans, space, and the built environment. Three scholars visiting the Davis Center supported by American Councils’ BridgeUSA Ukrainian Academic Fellows Program will present their work on how Ukraine can begin to recover in terms of the built and natural landscape and on conflict resolution opportunities amid the trauma of genocide.
In addition to the in-person event, this discussion will be live-streamed.
