ABOUT

Our mission is to document the modern history of Ukraine against the backdrop of the Russian-Ukrainian war so that future generations and the world can better understand these events.

Since the beginning of the full-scale Russian aggression, the life of every Ukrainian family, every Ukrainian company and city has changed. Every day the war takes the lives of Ukrainian defenders, tortures and kills civilians. Cultural heritage is being destroyed, some Ukrainian cities have been turned into ruins, millions of Ukrainians have left their homes in search of shelter, and tens of thousands of them have no place to return to. The Ukrainian state, the international community, human rights defenders and journalists are documenting all these war crimes of the Russian militaries in order to bring the aggressor to justice.

But despite the pain and losses, the citizens of Ukraine resist – at the frontline and in the back – and undeniably believe in their victory. People in live create new families, and even in bomb shelters little Ukrainians are born. Life returns to the liberated cities; communities are united by mutual aid; volunteers, as a blood-bearing system, supply the essentials to all parts of the country; families who have been forced out of their homes by the war find the strength to start everything again in a new place.

This is what ‘Life in War’ about. And Life always wins!

The name of the project “Life in War” was created by Yuliia Hurina, logo and visual style – by Alina Safonenko. The website was developed by Plastificator studio.
