The Museum of Civilian Voices by Rinat Akhmetov Foundation, the world's largest collection of stories from Ukrainian civilians about their experiences during the war, has gathered 120,000 first-hand accounts

The museum is an important source of truth about the war and a platform for preserving Ukraine's national memory, which allows the voices of those who survived the tragic events in our country to be heard around the world.

Children and adults, teenagers and the elderly, famous artists, athletes, doctors, scientists, museum workers - very different people who are united by the desire to share their stories - have already told their stories to the Museum.

The work of collecting testimonies continues. Thanks to these stories, the Museum supports not only the study of war crimes in order to establish justice and punish the perpetrators, but also helps Ukrainians to nurture and protect their identity, and foreigners to feel the strength of the Ukrainian nation's spirit and learn about what is happening in Ukraine from real witnesses and almost immediately after the events.

The testimonies collected by the Museum of Civilian Voices have already been used in the people's court against Putin in The Hague and will be used as evidence in future trials, and the stories of the Museum's heroes have repeatedly become the basis for documentaries about the war.

The Museum is also a platform for exchanging experience with international and Ukrainian organisations and educational institutions and spreading the truth to the widest possible audience. Its partners are Oral History Association (USA), USC Shoah Foundation, Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum, Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin, and Kyiv History Museum.

Every story is important, so Rinat Akhmetov Foundation calls on everyone to share their testimonies to record the events of today, support those who survived the terrible events and preserve the memory for future generations for a better, peaceful future.
