Zoom Event: “What's Next for Ukraine?” with Journalist Jim Brooke ‘77

Join us on Wednesday, March 19 at 7 pm ET for a talk on the war in Ukraine with distinguished journalist Jim Brooke YC '77.  This event will be hosted online via Zoom.

The war in Ukraine is now three years on.  What’s the situation and future for Ukraine?

Jim worked for 24 years as a staff reporter for The New York Times, with many reporting assignments to Russia. After leaving the Times in 2006, he worked in Moscow for eight years, including stints as Bloomberg Bureau Chief and then Voice of America (VOA) Bureau Chief.  He worked for six years as a journalist in Kyiv. In September 2021, he returned to his native New England.  Jim writes twice a week on Russia-Ukraine for The New York Sun.

The webinar is free. We suggest a donation of $10 or more to support Ukrainian refugees who are relocating to Connecticut.  We will forward contributions to Integrated Refugee and Immigrant Services (IRIS), a non-profit that supports refugees and asylum seekers and is based in New Haven.  For more information on IRIS, go to www.irisct.org.
