Holodomor Project – sponsored by the Ukrainian Canadian Congress, features website of interview with survivors

Sharing the Story – The Holodomor Famine Genocide in Ukraine 1932-33 was a project created by the Ukrainian Canadian Congress in partnership with the UCRDC and begun in the summer of 2008. The project was made possible with the support of the Department of Canadian Heritage through the Canadian Culture Online Strategy and several Ukrainian Canadian community organizations.

The aim of the project was to collect interviews with Famine survivors. Over eighty interviews with Holodomor survivors were filmed all across Canada. The interviewees were both men and women, from 78 to 99 years of age, most of whom had been children during the Famine.

A website was created out of the material collected. It features filmed excerpts of the interviews, in the original Ukrainian, with written translations in English. The site also has historical and statistical material as well as scholarly articles on the subjects of the Famine and genocide.
