Ukrainian Feminist Kitchen #5 - Shared Struggles with Nagorno-Karabakh

Ukrainian Feminist Kitchen is a crafting & discussion online event by Feminist Workshop.
This time speakers from Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, along with participants from Ukraine and other regions, who registered to our event gathered to discuss what they have learned from the experiences of wars and how it reshaped their views and activist vision.
Our speakers were:
Liza Matevosyan, co-founder of «Women’s center. Shushi» NGO, human rights activist from Nagorno-Karabakh, displaced from Shushi (NK)
Knarik Mkrtchyan, Women’s Agenda NGO Co-founder, peace advocate, and Women, Peace and Security Agenda expert.
«Variable name / Назва змінна» is an artistic group of Ukrainian artists and curators Maryna Marinichenko and Valerie Karpan. They work together mostly in participative art and cultural education since the first collaboration in the project «Exhibit it!» (Gallery «Labirynt», Lublin, Poland, 2018).
Throughout the discussion, participants were invited to draw a Christmas star, a traditional attribute of Colyada (a carol-singing performance in Ukraine), under the guidance of artist Viktoriia Cherniakhivska.
Event was moderated by Milena Abrahamyan.
