The Ukrainian World Congress International Holodomor Coordinating Committee has stated it will launch its new initiative to create a network for descendants of victims of the Holodomor in Ukraine in 1932-1933.
The goal of the global network will be to create a platform for communication, support, advocacy and activism, according to the UWC website.
“Every Canadian community and organization is encouraged to actively engage descendants in commemorations while building a database of individuals interested in participating and learning more about the Holodomor as well as the network itself,” reads a report.
As reported, the Holodomor National Awareness Tour, a project of the Canada Ukraine Foundation, has launched a campaign including a petition for the inclusion of the word “Holodomor” in English-language dictionaries.
