Join the Symbolic Run and Discussion in Support of the Artem Sviridov Scholarship Fund!

23.06.2026

On July 12, a symbolic run and open conversation will take place in Kyiv to honor the memory of Artem Sviridov and support the scholarship fund established in his name.

The event will be held on the eve of Artem’s birthday in Natalka Park in Obolon. Participants are invited to join a symbolic distance of 5 km or 1 km. The run will not include time tracking or results: everyone is welcome to run, walk, or simply be present. The purpose of the event is to bring the community together, honor Artem’s memory, and support the continuation of his legacy through the scholarship fund.

After the run, participants are invited to an open conversation titled “What We Rely On” — a discussion about values, choices, and inner anchors in turbulent times. The conversation will be led by Olena Matsekh, CEO of svoi.ridni, a NaUKMA alumna with a master’s degree, family physician, and expert in medical education.

📅 Date: Sunday, July 12, 2026
📍 Location: Natalka Park, Obolon
