The project was initiated by the Kharkiv Human Rights Protection Group to raise awareness of the UHG and the dissident movement in Ukraine and abroad. Based on the collected materials, it is planned to create a series of publications and a separate edition to initiate a discussion about the origins of civil society. The addressee is asked to answer a series of questions about their personal experience of opposing the totalitarian regime and the essence of dissent.
