On Friday, February 24, 2023, one year after the invasion of Ukraine by the Russian army, the world of culture will reaffirm its solidarity with the Ukrainian people throughout Europe. Thus, over 30 artists and cultural personalities from 11 European cities will take part online in the Europe-Ukraine Forum: Culture and Resistance, an event in which they will try to answer the question “How do we help Ukraine and Europe win the cultural war that Russia is holding it against them?”.
Representatives of Bucharest in the meeting will be two members of the academic community of the University of Bucharest: prof. Mihaela Pop, PhD, teaching staff at the Faculty of Philosophy, and lect. Vladimir Crețulescu, PhD, teaching staff at the Faculty of History.
People interested in participating in this forum, organized by the NGOs For Ukraine, for their freedom and ours! and Defense of Democracy in Poland, can log in starting with 18:00, on the Zoom platform here.
The event can also be watched on YouTube by accessing this link.
Apart from Bucharest, the other involved cities are ten other European capitals: Kiev, Tbilisi, Sofia, Warsaw, Krakow, Berlin, Rome, Madrid, Brussels and Paris.
The 30 intellectuals, including professors Pop and Crețulescu, responded to a call launched by the Ukrainian philosopher Constantin Sigov and the French specialist in Comparative Literature Alexis Nuselovici, both members of the academic community.
In France, Robin Renucci (artistic director of La Criée Theater, Marseille), Marcel Bozonnet (actor), Jonathan Littell (writer) and Omar Souleiman (poet) will speak at this public event, which will create a chain of visible cultural solidarity for the whole world.“From universities to theatres, from publishing houses to cinema and the visual arts, European cultural actors are mobilizing with what they know better to do: their words and ideas. […] These cultural representatives will be voicing to show that they are with the Ukrainian people in their daily efforts, to help them win the conflict and prepare for the future. The event on February 24 will lay the foundations for a permanent forum, as part of the new humanist movement that brings together intellectuals and activists from different countries, mentioned by Oleksandra Matviichuk in her acceptance speech for the Nobel Peace Prize”, notes the statement sent by to the two NGOs.Those interested can access more information on the event, including the list of other representatives at the meeting, here and here.
