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

This workshop is the first in a series of three workshops planned for this academic year that will introduce participating educators to new sources on Eurasian history and new skills to explore those resources in the classroom. This is a day-long workshop designed specifically for educators. We will delve into the complex environmental and social consequences of 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. Hosted in collaboration with the Lviv Center for Urban History, this workshop aims to inform and enrich your teaching toolkit. 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.
