The Kyiv Independent’s popular wartime travel series, ‘Dare to Ukraine,’ is set to return for its second season with a focus on a Ukrainian village. The series, which premiered on August 30, will release new episodes every Saturday for the next five weeks. The return of the series underscores its continued relevance in capturing the realities of life in Ukraine during the war.
Previously, the series launched in 2022 as a way to explore the impact of the war on Ukrainian communities. The second season builds on this foundation, aiming to provide deeper insights into the challenges and resilience of villagers in the face of ongoing conflict. The Kyiv Independent, a leading news outlet based in Ukraine, has used the series to highlight both the human stories and the broader socio-political implications of the war.
By choosing a Ukrainian village as the setting for the second season, the series promises to offer an intimate look at how rural communities are navigating the complexities of wartime existence. This approach not only humanizes the conflict but also keeps the global audience engaged with the ongoing situation in Ukraine.
