Documenting War Crimes in Ukraine. With Nadia Volkova

Two years ago, Russia invaded Ukraine. At 5 a.m., sirens were
wailing across the country and explosions were heard everywhere.
Since then, a group of over 30 NGOs has come together to document
and collect the war crimes and crimes against humanity committed
during this war to bring them to court. In this episode „Die
Kulturmittler:innen“ we talked to Nadia Volkova. The lawyer is
the director of the Ukrainian Legal Advisory Group and part of
the Ukraine 5 AM Coalition. She explained the work of the
coalition, the support from the civilian population and Germany’s
responsibility towards Ukraine. The Ukraine 5 AM Coalition is
honoured with the ifa Award this year. ifa – Institut für
Auslandsbeziehungen recognises the contribution of individuals
and institutions to foster transcultural relations through their
social, socio-political or artistic work.
