Sources From Ukraine: (Re)structuring Place, Memory, and Nature

This year Center for Urban History partnered with the Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies, Harvard University in organizing a series of online workshops with educators of American high schools to design Curriculum Development Project “On Ukraine” based on materials of the Center’s educational platform REESOURCES. Rethinking Eastern Europe. The result of this series will be presented at the final workshop within this year's series, which will take place at the Davis Center on November 21.

The day-long workshop will be dedicated to the theme of the complex environmental and social consequences of the war through the lens of modern Ukraine: destruction, environmental repercussions, and the need for reconstructing in order to resurrect the affected nature, urban spaces, and cultural heritage of a place. Participants will meet and hear presentations from several leading experts in the field, as well as engage in hands-on lesson planning activities utilizing available resources.
