Talks on Ukraine, war, displacement, and rebuilding lives in exile

Maria Romanenko speakingI regularly speak at universities, organisations, and public events about Ukraine, war displacement, and the lived experience of Ukrainians in the UK and beyond.

 

What I speak about:

  • Ukraine: beyond the headlines
  • Displacement and rebuilding identity
  • Media narratives – what they miss
  • Ukrainians in the UK
  • Belonging, resilience, and community

 

What audiences take away:

  • A deeper, human understanding of Ukraine beyond the news cycle
  • Insights into displacement, identity, and rebuilding lives
  • A more nuanced view of media narratives and representation
  • Space for reflection, discussion, and meaningful engagement

 

Formats:

  • Talks and keynote speaking
  • Panels and discussions
  • Media commentary
  • Walking tours in Manchester (migration, identity, hidden histories) – all proceeds go to Ukraine
