The Ukrainian diaspora is not an abstraction, but a very concrete force.
In Canada, the Ukrainian presence is measured by more than 1.25 million people of Ukrainian origin, in the United States – more than 1.6 million. In Europe, new large Ukrainian communities have formed in recent years, and the largest groups of people under temporary protection today live in Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic.
Here we will collect stories of communities, Ukrainian centers, schools, churches, businesses, festivals, events and new forms of Ukrainian life in the world.

Yes, and this is fundamentally important. We want the site to be understandable not only to Ukrainians. There will be materials here for those who are in love with Ukrainian culture, are friends with Ukrainians, are planning a marriage, are learning the language, are interested in traditions, or simply want to understand who Ukrainians are without stereotypes.
Yes. If you have a personal story, a family story, a community story, a business story, a cultural project, or a search for roots, that’s exactly the type of material that makes media come alive.
Because we don’t just chase news. We build lasting value: stories you want to read; texts you want to save; guides you want to return to; and an image of Ukraine that is made up not of headlines, but of people, traditions, and memory.
