February 5 - Oleksandra Volakova, “Resilience and Hope: How the Ukrainians are Surviving and Supporting the War.”
With the support of a summer research grant, Sasha Volakova spent the summer visiting several towns and cities in Ukraine and conducting interviews with residents about how they are experiencing their country’s war with Russia. In her talk, Sasha will use transcripts and photos from three of these interviews, conducted in three different cities, to portray how three individuals are adapting to wartime conditions and doing what they can to keep hope alive.
