Ukraine in Twenty Years – International Web-conference
On 22 August 2011, an international web-conference “Ukraine in Twenty Years” took place in Chernigiv Centre of In-service training. Its participants from Ukraine, Great Britain, Russia, Poland and USA tried to answer the question about how Ukraine’s independence is perceived in the world and in Ukraine itself.

Viktor Myronenko (Moscow, head of the Ukrainian Studies Center of Europe Institute of RAS) and Yurii Shapoval (Kyiv, head of the Political Sciences department of the Institute of Political and Ethno-National Studies of NAS of Ukraine) participate in the discussion in Kyiv. Using modern informational technologies, their speeches were discussed by Ukrainian scientists and University professors from Kyiv, Nizhyn and Chernigiv. Organisers of the event tried to look at twenty years of Ukrainian independence from two dimensions – from outside if the country and from inside of it, from the point of view of younger generation and the older one.
Special publication with materials of the conference will be published soon.
