Requiem

Platform for the memory of journalists who died as a result of Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine.

Years: 2022-...

Coordinators: Oksana Mamchenkova, Diana Delyurman

Partners: Institute of Mass Information, National Endowment for Democracy

Project description

Since the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, more than 50 Ukrainian and foreign journalists have been killed. Unfortunately, this number is growing, because the war is still going on. With this project, we honor the memory of the journalists who wanted to stop it.

The professionals whose memory we honor with this project wanted to stop it. They are brothers in arms. Their weapon is the truth. It is the truth that the aggressor is most afraid of.

Our mission is to continue the cause of the deceased media workers. To tell the truth for which they sacrificed their lives. To show the world the true face of the aggressor.
