The war in Ukraine has been going on for ten years, and the third year of the full-scale invasion has just begun. We are losing our best people, both among the military and among civilians. Right now all of our efforts and resources are aimed at fighting the enemy. So should we invest resources into memorials and monuments? Is this the right time to think and plan how we are going to remember this war? And can we plan the future without processing our memory of the past?

Maksym Zubov, Head of the Memorial Work Department of the State Institution ‘National Military Memorial Cemetery’;
Iryna Sklokina, historian, researcher at the Centre for Urban History (Lviv).
