This meeting is for those who are looking for answers to the main questions: who we are, where our strength comes from, and what sense we bring to the world after this war.

Focus of the meeting:

  1. Culture: strategy, potential, mission
  2. How art helps to think and create the future where the past is being destroyed.
  3. Why culture is becoming the key to subjectivity in a global world.
  4. Ukraine’s three enemies: Russia, the Kochubei movement, and provincial views.
  5. What will we offer the world after the war? Not just images of victims, but a powerful culture of recovery, dignity, co-creation and openness that will become a source of new meaning and inspiration for a global rethinking of values.
