THE LIVING ARCHIVE

Every fragment.
A human story.

Our archive programme connects wartime artifacts, testimony and digital preservation, helping audiences understand how war reshapes lives.

COLLECTIONS IN DEVELOPMENT

A catalogue built on context.

01

Material witnesses

Everyday objects, documents and safely conserved wartime artifacts can reveal the experiences behind historical events.

02

Drone warfare archive

A historical and educational record of the changing role of drones, focusing on technology, testimony and their human consequences.

03

Personal testimony

First-person accounts add context to objects, with consent and care for the people sharing their experience.

IMMERSIVE MEMORY

Explore places.
Understand what changed.

Our planned 3D and VR visits will help visitors explore documented war-affected places remotely. The aim is to preserve context and make difficult-to-access history available to museums and classrooms.

Virtual visits and catalogue entries are in development. This website does not yet offer a live VR tour or a searchable artifact collection.

HOW WE APPROACH THE WORK

Preservation begins with responsibility.

We aim to record provenance, dates, context and permissions for each published item. Sensitive locations and personal information require particular care. Public interpretation will focus on history and human experience.

Potential contributors should contact the team first with a description and photographs. Please do not send hazardous objects or publish sensitive personal or location information.

A SHARED RESPONSIBILITY

Help carry these stories forward.

Make space for Ukrainian history. Support the people whose lives are part of it.
