Winners of “One Day” competition told about lost childhood and important thing in life

These are totally not childish stories. They touch heart and soul. These stories show how deeply modern Ukrainian children, who have gone through the war, understand life.

The Museum of Civilian Voices, which founded by Rinat Akhmetov Foundation, held an essay competition "One Day". The participants were almost two thousand schoolchildren. This is collection of the best works selected by the jury. Those who took first, second and third places received awards from the Rinat Akhmetov Foundation. 

The competition was held within the framework of the Memorandum of Cooperation between the Rinat Akhmetov Foundation and the Institute for Modernization of the Content of Education of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine. It was attended by schoolchildren of grades 9-11 from Donetsk, Lugansk, Zaporozhye and Kharkov regions.
