DESCRIPTION:While the borders of Ukraine have shifted over centuries\, map
 s of its territory have been produced since the Middle Ages. Far from neut
 ral\, these images are inherently political and meaning-making objects as 
 cartography is an ambivalent practice that simultaneously includes and exc
 ludes. The contemporary map of Ukraine reflects its post-1991 independence
  borders\, which amidst Russia’s war serves as a potent symbol of nation
 al unity and territorial sovereignty. \n\nSince Russia’s full-scale inva
 sion\, new mappings of Ukraine have also emerged\, including those most vi
 sibly\, near-real-time front-line maps tracking military activity\, colour
 -coded to mark occupation and shifting battle lines. Artists have also pro
 duced counter-cartographies of Ukraine that expand the definition of what 
 a map can be by including affective artefacts\, memories\, and speculation
 s. Meanwhile\, novel technologies are enabling new modes of cartography th
 at include animation and data-rich mappings that document violence and war
  crimes. Cartography\, then\, extends well beyond the mapping of a state
 ’s borders to include a broad suite of practices.\n\nIn the final worksh
 op of the Oxford Ukraine Hub\, we explore these Ukrainian cartographies. B
 y interrogating and challenging conventional cartographic methods\, we ask
 : How is Ukraine’s territory known\, and by whom? How do cartographers\,
  archeologists\, political scientists\, and wider publics map Ukraine? How
  might alternative approaches challenge dominant understandings of where a
 nd what Ukraine is? And how are cartographic practices used to document wa
 r crimes and support Ukraine’s defence?\n\nPlease fill out the form to a
