Betreff: [FORSCHENDE/LEHRENDE GESCH&PHIL&THEO] invitation / Ostap Slyvynsky: “Ukraine 2022–2025: Why Culture Matters in Bad Times?”
Dear Colleagues, Dear Students,
There are very few people I would describe as truly beautiful minds. Dr Ostap Slyvynsky from our partner university, the Ukrainian Catholic University (UCU) in Lviv, is certainly one of them.
I am delighted and grateful that he has accepted the invitation to Bielefeld — with thanks to Erasmus+!
While the main focus of his visit is teaching, there will also be a special public lecture, and you are warmly invited to attend. You’ll find the details below.
If you would like to get in touch with Ostap during his stay in Bielefeld (7–18 July), please feel free to contact him directly via email at: o.slyvynsky@ucu.edu.ua<mailto:o.slyvynsky@ucu.edu.ua>.
With best wishes,
Kornelia Kończal
