10 OUR LIFE • September-October 2025 of resistance against centuries of erasure. As Ukraine defends itself on all fronts, the UNWLA continues to lead efforts that amplify Ukrain - ian voices and ensure their rightful place in the global conversation. Preserving the Truth of the Holodomor: The UNWLA’S Role in Global Recognition The UNWLA has long worked to secure Holo - domor recognition, beginning with letters to U.S. leaders during the 1932–1933 artificial famine engineered by Stalin. In 2018, working closely with the National Library of Wales, Dr. Lubomyr Luciuk, and the Ukrainian Canadian Civil Liberties Foundation, the UNWLA donated $28,000 towards the digitization of Welsh journalist Gareth Jones’s diaries. These diaries are a crucial eyewitness account of the famine. This project culminated on May 12, 2022, with an event in the Welsh Parliament honoring Jones for his ef - forts in exposing the Holodomor. The event was attend- ed by Welsh government officials, Holodomor scholars, Gareth Jones’s family, and then UNWLA Officer-at-Large Oksana Lodziuk Krywulych. Prior to the event, the Welsh Parliament unanimously recognized the Holodomor as a deliberate act by the Soviet Union and urged global rec - ognition of it as genocide. This initiative underscores the UNWLA’s ongoing dedication to Holodomor education and remembrance, ensuring that Jones’s eyewitness ac- count is preserved and accessible to future generations. The digitized diaries have been donated to several prestigious institutions, including the Library of Congress, Stanford University, and the Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine, making them widely available to the public. As the principal sponsor, the UNWLA also received a dig - ital copy for its archives. Earlier, in 2007, the UNWLA funded the publication of an English translation of Valentyna Borysenko’s The Candle of Memory (A Candle in Remembrance) , bringing survivor testimonies to readers in 33 countries. Borysen- ko’s work stands as both a monument to the victims who perished and an indictment of those who orchestrated acts of barbaric cruelty against the Ukrainian people, as well as a prayer that such atrocities are never repeated. Strategic Partnerships In 2024, the UNWLA signed Memoranda of Understand - ing with two impactful organizations: Ukraine Global Scholars (UGS) and ENGin. UGS helps exceptional Ukrainian students from under - served backgrounds gain admission and full scholarships to top international schools, with a commitment to re - turn and rebuild Ukraine. The UNWLA supports UGS’s Summer Internship and Host Family programs, offer - ing mentorship and care. Since 2022, UGS interns have worked with UNWLA leaders on key projects, including the 2023 Decolonization of Ukrainian Culture report, Prudentopolis (Brazil) schoolchildren, 1975.
