All in person. | Press conference: “Business with reputation: Who shapes the new ethics of the business environment in Ukraine” Key topics: – What role can the UNIC Award play in promoting the trend of ethical leadership and reputational growth for companies? – Is integrity becoming the new norm for Ukrainian businesses, or is it still limited to isolated examples? – How do companies practically build and maintain a culture of integrity in stressful or transformational conditions? – Does a company’s ethical behavior influence its ecosystem – suppliers, partners, and clients? – How can best practices in integrity be effectively scaled to serve as models for emulation in Ukraine and beyond? Background: The UNIC Award is an annual recognition honoring Ukrainian companies that implement principles of integrity, transparency, and responsible business conduct. It was established by the UNIC Integrity Network, supported by the international community. This year, the award will be presented as part of Integrity Month – a series of events aimed at promoting ethical entrepreneurship in Ukraine. |
| 12:00 PM | Kyiv | – Anatolii Matviichuk, Poetry Author (online); – Mykhailo Shved, General Director of the National Philharmonic of Ukraine; – Oleksii Palamarenko, Lead Actor, People’s Artist of Ukraine, Actor of the Ivan Franko National Academic Drama Theater. | National Philharmonic of Ukraine presents the performative psychodrama “Ludyna.com.ua…” Why is this interesting? As part of the “Philharmonic of the Unconquered” project, the National Philharmonic of Ukraine will present a performative psychodrama featuring poetry specially created for this project by Anatolii Matviichuk, along with music by Valentyn Sylvestrov, Yevhen Stankovych, Mykhailo Shved, and Mykhailo Shukh. This performance explores individual and collective resilience, the culture of care, the soul, and those emotional states people experience in solitude – often unable to voice them aloud. Through poetry, music, song, and sand animation visuals, each spectator will have the chance to rediscover themselves, their emotions, their losses, and their hopes. It is an opportunity to confront one’s own psychological and emotional state – and perhaps, to truly know oneself. |
