A Symposium of Ideas and Strategies<\/p>\n\n\n\n
9, 10, 11 September 2022 \u2014 (online)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The reconstruction of Ukraine \u2013 carried out not only after but also during a protracted, brutal war \u2013 must entail a process of the re-assertion of Ukrainian sovereignty over the country\u2019s built environment as well as its economic, social and cultural fabric. The process of reconstruction should be led by Ukrainian actors and Ukrainian institutions; and it should be informed by a deep knowledge and experiential grounding in Ukrainian culture, society and heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although reconstruction must be a Ukrainian-led project, it ought also to be undergirded by non-invasive but far-reaching and sustainable international support in terms of funding, expertise and shared knowledge. In this respect, solidarity is a multi-directional process. Reconstruction can usefully be informed by sensitive, empathetic, ecumenical comparisons with other places and contexts which have undergone \u2013 or are still undergoing \u2013 processes of ruination and renewal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Reconstruction of Ukraine: Ruination \/ Representation \/ Solidarity\u201d<\/em> devotes particular attention to cities, architecture, art, culture and psychological trauma \u2013 but the scope of the conversations it aims to start is broader. In due course, the discussions held during the symposium may coalesce into myriad projects, initiatives and experiments undertaken by government institutions, municipalities, educational and cultural bodies and other more interstitial actors. The ambition of this symposium is to establish a platform for dialogue, facilitating communication, collaboration and constructive argument between diverse actors and initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n More details and event program here: https:\/\/reconstruct.in.ua\/. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ruination \/ Representation \/ Solidarity A Symposium of Ideas and Strategies 9, 10, 11 September 2022 \u2014 (online) The reconstruction of Ukraine \u2013 carried out not only after but also…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":340,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,12251],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-667","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","category-upcoming-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-test.newschool.edu\/hromada\/wpjson\/wp\/v2\/posts\/667","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-test.newschool.edu\/hromada\/wpjson\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-test.newschool.edu\/hromada\/wpjson\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-test.newschool.edu\/hromada\/wpjson\/wp\/v2\/users\/340"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-test.newschool.edu\/hromada\/wpjson\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=667"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-test.newschool.edu\/hromada\/wpjson\/wp\/v2\/posts\/667\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":671,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-test.newschool.edu\/hromada\/wpjson\/wp\/v2\/posts\/667\/revisions\/671"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-test.newschool.edu\/hromada\/wpjson\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=667"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-test.newschool.edu\/hromada\/wpjson\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=667"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-test.newschool.edu\/hromada\/wpjson\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=667"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
