While the Ukrainian diaspora continues to support the country through advocacy and fundraising, many Ukrainians abroad are also building new lives outside Ukraine. How do we think about recovery under these conditions, and what role can diaspora communities play in Ukraine’s future?

Co-organized together with DIIS – Danish Institute for International Studies, we invite you to a seminar bringing together researchers, diplomats, NGO representatives, and Ukrainian voices working on migration and diaspora engagement.

The program includes presentations by DIIS researchers Ninna Nyberg Sørensen, whose work focuses on migration and development, and Nauja Kleist, who researches diaspora engagement and belonging in times of crisis. The roundtable discussion will feature Andrii Yanevskyi, Ambassador of Ukraine to Denmark; Adrien Bory from the Danish Refugee Council and DEMAC; Roman Mykytenko from the Ukrainian World Congress; and Nataliia Popovych, Chairperson of Ukraine House in Denmark. The discussion will be moderated by Ida Marie Savio Vammen, a DIIS researcher focusing on migration.

We will soon share more information about each speaker.

Date: Tuesday, May 27
Time: 16:00–18:00
Location: Ukraine House in Denmark, Strandgade 27B, Copenhagen

Join us for an afternoon of critical discussion on Ukraine’s future and the diaspora’s role in its recovery.
