About this Event
Book discussion with Darya Tsymbalyuk and Adriana Petryna
In conversation with Adriana Petryna, Darya Tsymbalyuk discusses her book on the environmental impacts of Russia’s war on Ukraine Ecocide in Ukraine: The Environmental Cost of War (Polity, 2025). Weaving in personal stories of growing up in the south of Ukraine, accounts of environmentalists on the grounds and analysis of media narratives, she tries to find a language to articulate what it means to inhabit a land under attack.
Tsymbalyuk weaves together personal memories of growing up in southern Ukraine, insights from environmentalists on the ground, and analysis of media narratives to articulate the profound ways war reshapes ecosystems and everyday life. This event offers a unique opportunity to engage with the intersection of environmental humanities, artistic research, and the urgent ecological realities of conflict. Attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of how culture, memory, and the natural world endure under extreme duress.
