The eighteenth episode of Inclusioni—the podcast channel of the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures at the University of Verona—is now online on all major platforms. The episode is titled “Ambassadors of Freedom: the historical experience of Ukrainian women in international politics and diplomacy.”
In this episode, we explore an often overlooked yet fundamental chapter of Ukrainian history: the crucial role played by Ukrainian women in international politics and diplomacy. Our guest, Alla Shvets, Deputy Director of the Ivan Franko Institute and a prominent figure in the Association for Research in Women’s History, discusses how Ukrainian women acted as true ambassadors of freedom within the international political and diplomatic arena, shaping and representing Ukraine on the global stage.
The interview, conducted in English, is hosted by Olivia Guaraldo, Full Professor of Political Philosophy at the Department of Human Sciences and the Rector’s Delegate for Public Engagement at the University of Verona.
