What does justice look like in Ukraine? Documenting atrocity in Ukraine

Accountability for war crimes, acknowledgement of guilt, reconstruction, reparations, and a “thriving Ukraine” — in the second panel of the forum Memory, Trauma, and Transitional Justice in Ukraine, we explore what justice means in the Ukrainian context and the role that documenting war crimes plays in achieving it.

Speakers:

  • Nataliya Gumenyuk, Journalist specializing in foreign affairs and conflict reporting, founder of the Public Interest Journalism Lab
  • Alyona Lunova, Crimean human rights defender, Advocacy Director at the ZMINA Human Rights Center
  • Vitalii Okhrimenko, Military personnel, Head of Strategic Development at the Cultural Forces of Ukraine

Moderator: Valeriia Voshchevska, Independent Research, formerly with Amnesty International and HRW.

The forum was implemented in partnership with King’s College London, NGO Art Dot, and the Kyiv School of Economics, with the participation of Cultural Forces of Ukraine—a platform bringing together the military, artists, and businesses to support the mental health of Ukraine’s Defense Forces, foster civil-military cooperation, and advance cultural diplomacy.
