2019 International Holodomor Memorial Day: Saturday, November 24. Up to 10 million people died in 1932-33 when Soviet leader Josef Stalin engineered a famine in a bid to break the spirit of Ukraine. In November 2018, the Australian Federation of Ukrainian Organisations (AFUO) launched a unique photo exhibition in Melbourne to mark 85 years since the Holodomor – Stalin’s man-made famine in Ukraine in 1932-33. The exhibition honoured survivors of the Holodomor (Genocide), who eventually came to settle in Australia. Nine months on, the exhibition has opened in Kyiv through a collaboration between the AFUO and the National Museum: Holodomor Victims Memorial.
