Executive Summary “Memorial map: identyfiying every victim of the conflict as the first step toward reconciliation”

An absence of open records of persons who died in the course of the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine as well as lack of access to the reliable information leaves a lot of room for manipulating the minds of Ukrainians and international community, misrepresenting the real situation and disrupting the peacekeeping efforts of international organizations. The fragmentary and contradictory nature of databases managed by the government agencies and NGOs complicates development of the efficient state information policy and effective counteraction to false information. That is why the interactive Memorial Map containing information about all the victims, created by UHHRU’s Human Rights Abuse Documentation Center in 2017, is being the first step toward identification and commemoration of the conflict victims, as well as objective representation of the situation in Ukraine and eventual reconciliation.
