The forum is dedicated to the centenary of the recognition of the territory of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra as a state museum complex and will be held in both in-person and online formats. It will be attended by scholars, staff of museums, archives, and libraries; as well as representatives of the country’s higher education institutions and research institutes.
