The ANU Centre for European Studies is honoured to host a special address by His Excellency President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President of Ukraine, on Wednesday 3 August 2022. 

President Zelenskyy will speak live via video link from Ukraine to an audience of students and community members across 20 Australian universities including an audience of students and dignitaries gathered at the main event in Llewellyn Hall, Canberra. 

The event will be officially opened by ANU Chancellor The Hon. Julie Bishop and will also feature a Q&A session between students and President Zelenskyy. 

This event is a unique opportunity for students to engage - in real time - with a world leader navigating the confronting realities of war, and to reflect on the importance of upholding and defending the rule of law, democracy and the rules-based international order. 

Nearing six months since the start of the invasion of Ukraine, President Zelenskyy continues to inspire the world through his leadership and service to his country. We are incredibly grateful to have President Zelenskyy share his time and thoughts with our community. 

ANU strongly condemns the invasion of Ukraine and on 3 March 2022 released a statement in support of the Ukrainian people. 

We are proud to be joined by our friends and colleagues from universities and institutions across Australia, who will hold live screenings of the Special Address on their campuses:
