uil/LUR

In 2021-23, I was a Special Projects Curator for the Ukrainian Institute London, a centre for Ukraine-related educational and cultural activities in the UK. My UIL projects have aimed at centring Ukrainian voices and promoting Ukrainian culture, knowledge, and experience globally.

London Ukrainian Review

I am the editor of the London Ukrainian Review, an open-access journal that tackles global challenges through the prism of Ukraine. It was founded in 2021 as a special publication of the UIL. In 2024, LUR was relaunched in partnership with IWM and ASP as a regular indexed journal, published three times per year and searchable across all major scholarly databases. LUR remains committed to publishing thought-provoking and engaging open-access content. 

Available issues:

Issue 2 (2024): Crimean Tatars

Issue 1 (2024): War on Nature

Special issue 3 (2023): War literature; in memory of Victoria Amelina

Special issue 2 (2022): Literature of resistance: Lesia Ukrainka

Special issue 1 (2021): 30 Years Young: Declaration of Independence of Ukraine 

Ukraine Lab

I curated Ukraine Lab, an online writing laboratory which looked at global challenges through the prism of Ukraine. It was run by the Ukrainian Institute London in partnership with PEN Ukraine and Ukrainian Institute and supported by the British Council as part of the UK/UA Season 2022. The recording of the Ukraine Lab launch at the British Library is available here. Order the essay collection here.

literatura

This online course Literatura is for anyone who is interested in Ukrainian literature. It discusses the Romantics and the avant-garde, the modernists and the dissidents, the post-modernists and the feminists as well as the rich literary scene of contemporary Ukraine.
