The Ukraine War Archive (UWA) is a digital platform that collects and stores material about Russia’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine. The archive serves not only as a repository of memory, but also as a strategic tool in the fight for justice—preserving the nation’s memory and creating a basis for accountability.
In a discussion with the creators of the Ukrainian War Archive and representatives of Ukrainian and Lithuanian institutions and organizations, we will discuss what awaits Ukraine after laying down its arms, how Lithuania’s support for Ukraine can go beyond military resources, and how the archive can serve the fight for truth and justice.
The archive presentation and discussion event on October 17th is free of charge, but registration is required.
The archive will be available for research on October 17th from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m., October 18th from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m., and October 19th from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Muzeoteka.
ABOUT THE ARCHIVE
The Ukraine War Archive is a collaborative digital preservation platform that collects evidence and testimonies related to Russia’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine. Russia’s war against Ukraine is the most documented act of military aggression in history. To ensure that this evidence serves not only as a testimony to a historical period, but is also accessible and usable in courts, investigative journalism, scientific research, and the arts, it is professionally collected and stored.
The archive contains material related to civilian resistance, crimes committed by the aggressor in Ukraine, violent crimes, and other crimes. It also contains material about the daily life of Ukrainians during the war, including evacuations, bomb shelters, and similar experiences. In addition, the Ukrainian War Archive stores interviews with witnesses of war.
The Ukrainian War Archive aims to create a unified database that would serve as a convenient and effective tool not only for preserving information, but also for protecting society from misinformation and combating Russian propaganda. The aim is for the archives to preserve the history of Ukraine’s resistance for future generations and help ensure justice for the Ukrainian people.
