21.1.2025 11:16:36 CET | Ukraine House in Denmark | Pressemeddelelse
COPENHAGEN, January 25, 2025 – Ukraine House in Denmark is proud to announce the launch of “A Taste of Soborna Ukraine”, a culinary initiative commemorating the Day of Unity of Ukraine, celebrated annually on January 22. The project delves into the essence of “soborna” (соборна)—a unity that transcends territorial bonds—through the lens of Ukrainian cuisine.
Drawing inspiration from the historic Act of Unification in 1919, which united the Ukrainian People's Republic and Western Ukrainian People's Republic, this initiative highlights how diverse regional culinary traditions come together to form a unified, rich cultural identity. From Carpathian herbs to Polissian mushrooms, Bessarabian wines, and Crimean Tatar spices, each region's unique flavors contribute to a shared heritage that tells the story of Ukraine's historical connections.
Beginning this January, Ukraine House will unveil a monthly showcase of traditional recipes, celebrating how Ukrainian cuisine transcends regional boundaries while honoring its local roots. The dishes embody the cultural significance of sobornist—a unity that can be tasted, shared, and celebrated.

Post-Release: Tymofii Brik on the Evolution of Ukrainian Society through Data on Social Change and Cohesion4.3.2026 12:21:51 CET | Pressemeddelelse
On January 22, Unity of Ukraine Day, Ukraine House in Denmark hosted a public discussion examining how Ukrainian society has transformed over the past three decades and what makes it resilient today amid full-scale war. Drawing on extensive sociological research, the event explored questions of trust, identity, decentralization, civil society, and polarization, offering a data-driven perspective that goes beyond simplified narratives. The discussion was moderated by Nataliia Popovych, who opened the event by framing Ukraine’s current resilience as the outcome of long-term social change rather than a sudden wartime phenomenon. The keynote presentation was delivered by Tymofii Brik, sociologist and rector of the Kyiv School of Economics, who presented findings from multiple national and international studies conducted before and during the war.
