Colloquium “Writing and Teaching Environmental History of Ukraine and East Central Europe”
The colloquium aims to advance the environmental history of Ukraine as a research field and teaching area by addressing related challenges, identifying opportunities, and planning future directions.
It also fosters a comparative perspective by situating Ukraine within broader regional dynamics and engaging with the environmental histories of neighboring countries. The event brings together scholars and students to discuss both the conceptual dimensions and the practical implications of researching, writing, and teaching the environmental history of Ukraine and East Central Europe.
