It is known that the conference on the restoration of Ukraine is being held in the capital of Germany on June 11-12.

Thus, according to Chiara Dezzi Bardeschi, who represents UNESCO in Ukraine, this project emphasized the important role of journalists in documenting the destruction in Ukraine, as well as in the recovery process.
«In order to restore the country, we must be informed about the impact of the war on culture, education and science, and for this, the support of a strong media sector in Ukraine is important,» she said.
In turn, IMI director Oksana Romaniuk called the photo exhibition at the Conference on the Restoration of Ukraine symbolic, as it «conveys the resilience, courage and hope of the Ukrainian people in extremely difficult conditions.»
«These are not just pictures — they are striking stories about communities that are being rebuilt, about lives that are being restored, about terrible Russian war crimes. The photo exhibition of IMI and UNESCO aims to provide a powerful visual accompaniment to the discussions and decisions adopted at the conference, reminding the participants of the human faces behind politicians and strategies,» shared Oksana Romaniuk.
