The forum, held in two four hour segments spanning consecutive days, will bring together government and key non-government representatives from Ukraine, Canada, the EU, and the US to take measure of Ukraine’s 2020-2021 progress/regress in six categories: “robust democratic politics, mature market economics, ever greater energy security, ever greater general security, viable social cohesion, and an established national identity.”
To facilitate said examination, the event will run four plenary sessions, four highlight focus sessions, two special sessions, and a tally-master report. In total, nearly three dozen featured speakers are expected to address the conference proceedings.
