About the Event
More than 20,000 Ukrainian civilians are currently held in Russian captivity, including over 2,000 women. Although Russia refuses to acknowledge holding civilians, they are detained under the same conditions as prisoners of war, without legal status or protection.
This event brings together former civilian captives, journalists, and human rights defenders to discuss the scale of civilian detention, violations of basic rights, the path to return, and the pursuit of justice and reparations.
Persons with disabilities who wish to request accommodations or who have questions about access should contact HURI (huri@fas.harvard.edu) at least two weeks in advance of the session.
