In the summer of 2024, 16-year-old Klaudia travelled with Harbingers’ Academy to Ukraine to document the toll of Russia’s full-scale invasion.
A week of work in Lviv and Kyiv resulted with an article about the generation that came of age during wartime.
From Lviv, Klaudia travelled to the Carpathian Mountains in Ukraine, where she attended the RUTA 2024 Annual Conference focusing on empowering creatives from Eastern Europe and the Caucasus to tell underrepresented stories about their regions.
After Ukraine, Klaudia travelled to the United States, where she attended the Harbingers’ Magazine Washington D.C. Newsroom conference and analysed how the 2024 Presidential Elections in the US could affect the future of American support for Ukraine.
I spent a week in Lviv, Ukraine at the end of June, where frequent air alarms sounded day and night, generators hummed persistently, power outages were the norm, and nightly curfews from 12am–5am were strictly implemented.
