2022 Toronto Annual Famine Lecture

9 November, 2022

Campbell Conference Facility, University of Toronto

 

In this lecture, Dr. Daria Mattingly (University of Cambridge and Leverhulme Early Career Fellow) explored how the Holodomor offers a key to understanding the current war in Ukraine, both from a historical perspective and by revealing parallels in the objectives, methods and outcomes. She discussed how further studies of the Holodomor are pertinent to explaining the war and its international implications in an increasingly interconnected world.

The Toronto Annual Ukrainian Famine Lecture was initiated in 1998 and is organized by CIUS's Holodomor Research and Education Consortium. It is co-sponsored by the Centre for European, Russian, and Eurasian Studies, University of Toronto; the Canadian Foundation for Ukrainian Studies; the Ukrainian Canadian Congress, Toronto; the Petro Jacyk Program for the Study of Ukraine, University of Toronto; and St. Vladimir Institute - SVI (Toronto).
