Writing and Teaching Environmental History of Ukraine and East Central Europe

19-20 June 2026 │ Pilecki Institute, Warsaw, Poland

The EnvHistUA Research Group in partnership with Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History, Polish Academy of Sciences and Pilecki Institute is pleased to announce the colloquium “Writing and Teaching Environmental History of Ukraine and East Central Europe”, which will take place on 19-20 June 2026 in Warsaw, Poland.

The colloquium aims to advance the environmental history of Ukraine as a research field and teaching area by addressing related challenges, identifying opportunities, and planning future directions. It also fosters a comparative perspective by situating Ukraine within broader regional dynamics and engaging with the environmental histories of neighboring countries. The event brings together scholars and students to discuss both the conceptual dimensions and the practical implications of researching, writing, and teaching the environmental history of Ukraine and East Central Europe.
