About the museum the Holodomor
Our Mission
Consolidating Ukrainian Society Through Remembrance of the Past
We are transforming the Museum into a leading institution for the study of the Holodomor genocide, one that responds to society’s current needs. Our main priorities are the promotion of human rights, preventing the recurrence of crimes against humanity, and combating Russian-style ideology through the use of facts.

Ceremonial Square

As long as Ukraine maintains its national unity, as long as its people continue to think of themselves as Ukrainians and strive for independence, it poses a serious threat to the very essence of Sovietism.
