The deadline for submission of works to the Annual competition of research and creative works on “History and lessons of the Holocaust” extended to May 31, 2022
Dear colleagues!!!
The deadline for submission of works for the Annual competition of research and creative works on “History and lessons of the Holocaust” named after I.B. Medvinsky has come to the end on April, 10th. We are sincerely grateful to all the students and their supervisors who submitted their work on time! You are our heroes, because, despite the martial law, you have proved that values, culture and education are the traits that make Ukrainians a Nation with a capital letter!
However, we receive letters from colleagues asking to extend the deadline for submission of works. Given that it is not yet possible to hold the final part of the Competition on time (unfortunately, our favorite Pushcha Vodytsia is currently mined by russian criminals), we decided to extend the deadline for submission of works until May 31, 2022.
We look forward to your work !!!
P.S. We kindly ask to send your works ONLY in electronic form! You will be able to send printed works later, during the final part of the Competition!
We wish VICTORY for all of us as soon as possible!!!
Sincerely, UCHS team

You're walking down the street and suddenly see a name. No Grand Words. But a Story.
This is a stumbling stone — a small concrete cube with a brass plate. Often unnoticed by those rushing past, but deeply eloquent to those who pause. Each stone marks a story. A life. And a memory returning to the city. Since August 2025, the Kyiv project “One Stone — One Life: 80 Stumbling Stones for Kyiv” has continued its work. This autumn will bring new installations, new names, new research, and new teams, which we will begin forming in September. Follow our announcements — it might just be you
