About the event
Through incredible personal stories and extraordinary projects, the Ukrainian World Congress will launch a candid discussion on what unites Ukrainians today, wherever they may live, today and what will bring them together in the future.
Will it be spirituality? Education? Culture? Commitment to shared purpose? Business or the global community? Where do diaspora Ukrainians get their strength? How do they overcome challenges and the feeling of nostalgia? What helps them remain Ukrainians and be successful?
Dispersed around the globe and united by Ukraine, we will come together on October 17, at the First Global Virtual Forum “United by Ukraine”.
The event, live-streamed to audiences worldwide, will feature prominent Ukrainians from around the globe.
It will bring together leaders of the Ukrainian diaspora to discover what unites Ukrainians worldwide. Join our global discussion!

Executive producer of “Suspilna Studia” on UA: ПЕРШИЙ TV channel
“It was a significant project for “Susplilna Sudia”. It was through collaboration with the Ukrainian World Congress that we created such important, heartfelt, and meaningful live broadcast. We showed true inspiring stories, discussed ways how to strengthen the image of our country, and to raise the issue of preserving our culture and identity. We hope to continue our fruitful cooperation with the diaspora and implement more significant projects”.
