A Firsthand Report of Ukrainian Suffering and Resolve
Setup
Yuliya Tychtivska is the dynamic executive director of Aspen Institute Kyiv, an Aspen Institute partner organization in Ukraine, founded in 2015. Less a conversation about the war and of strategies and global actions to support a Ukrainian victory, this will be an opportunity to probe the human dimensions of the tragedy. Tychtivska will talk about her experiences, emotions, and activities, as well as those of her colleagues, friends, and family — some like her who became refugees to escape bombs and protect children, and some like her husband and many male colleagues who stayed to fight.
