Environmental Education Through Theater: Supporting Eco-Theater in Ukraine

From December 6 to 8, Ukraine hosted a unique eco forum-theater, which our organization, Austausch, was honored to support. The event was organized by the Civil Society Center “Drukarnia,” founded by us in Sloviansk in 2019. Despite challenges, “Drukarnia” relocated to Ivano-Frankivsk in 2022 and continues to implement important initiatives.

Inspiring Facts:

  • 15 participants from various Ukrainian communities shared their personal stories and experiences.
  • 42 audience members not only watched but actively joined a live dialogue.
  • Discussions focused on overconsumption, its impact on resources, the environment, and waste.

🎭 Why is this important?
Eco-theater is more than just art—it is a powerful tool for environmental education. It enables interactive and accessible discussions on complex issues, inspires action, and fosters collective problem-solving. Initiatives like this help build ecological awareness, which is the foundation for sustainable development in Ukraine.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who participated in this event! We will continue to support environmental education and initiatives that inspire change.
🎬 Stay tuned for a video that will capture the vibrant atmosphere of these unforgettable days.

The event was implemented within the framework of the EcoNet 2.0 project with the support of Brot für die Welt and Austausch.
