1000 days of war through the lives of Ukrainians in the special project of the Museum of Civilian Voices by the Rinat Akhmetov Foundation
19 November 2024 marks 1000 days since the start of russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine – 1000 days of relentless resistance and a fight for freedom, at the edge of possibility and impossibility.
In honour of this milestone, the Museum of Civilian Voices by the Rinat Akhmetov Foundation has launched a major special project, «1000 Days. Thousands of Stories», which reflects key moments of the war in Ukraine through the personal testimonies of residents from across the country.
This collection includes 20 significant milestones from the 1000 days of war: the first days of fighting and the first refugees, the tragedy of Mariupol, the hellish experiences of Bucha and Irpin, the abduction of Ukrainian children, the destruction of the Kakhovka HPP, the liberation of Kherson, and more.

As part of this project, not only can you read these stories, but you can also support their authors.
On 18 November, the Museum, in collaboration with the My-Ukraine+ channel, launched the «Letters of Support» campaign, where anyone can send a few warm and encouraging words to those who have endured extraordinary hardships.

The Museum of Civilian Voices by the Rinat Akhmetov Foundation collects the stories of Ukrainian civilians who have either become victims or witnesses of the war. These are the testimonies of people who have received help from the Foundation, dating back to 2014 and continuing to this day. The Museum’s archive is the world’s largest collection of firsthand accounts of the war in Ukraine, directly from its witnesses.
The Museum’s archive currently contains over 120,000 firsthand stories. You can share your own story on the Museum’s portal https://civilvoicesmuseum.org/ or by calling the Foundation’s free hotline at 0 (800) 509 001.
