Deciding Your Tomorrow
Deciding Your Tomorrow

The Deciding Your Tomorrow project is an immersive visual and intellectual experience, and space for discussion and debate. Contemporary Ukrainian artists depicted Ukraine through a series of compelling video portraits and stories. An exhibition portrayed Ukrainians as they defend freedom, endure losses, and achieve victories. Amid constant threat, it showcased Ukrainians definitely living their lives.
Another part of the Deciding Your Tomorrow project was a 3-day discussion program which brought together global thinkers, experts and people from the ground in Ukraine to discuss key aspects of Ukrainians’ defense of life and freedom. How to strengthen and fortify alliances to prevail? How to defeat external aggression while strengthening one’s own society and political system? These are challenges Ukraine shares with its international partners.
