Presentation of the Book “The Spirit of Cossackdom Through Generations”

On October 12, 2025, in the Ukrainian House “Peremoha”, a presentation of the book “The Spirit of Cossackdom Through Generations” took place. The authors of the publication are Volodymyr Moseiko, Alla Prokopyshyn, and Leonid Kravchuk. The event was dedicated to the 12th anniversary of the founding of Dmytro (Baida) VyshnevetskyiTernopil Cossack-Desant Environmental Center.

The book brings together stories, memories, and photographs that depict the path, traditions, achievements, and daily work of volunteers, Cossacks, and comrades who embody the spirit of courage, honor, and love for Ukraine. It also highlights the activities of the Podillia-Volyn Sich, which unites today’s followers of Cossack traditions.

During the event, participants also acknowledged the significant contribution of the center to the development of patriotic education of youth, the preservation of national traditions, and the promotion of spiritual values of the Ukrainian people.

The event was actively attended by students, as well as teachers from the Department of Higher Education Pedagogy and Social Disciplines, including Serhii Bondarenko, Candidate of Historical Sciences, Associate Professor, and leading historian of the department.

A pleasant moment of the event was the award ceremony for third-year students of I. Horbachevsky Ternopil National Medical University — Sofiia Kukharchuk and Dmytro Kopytchak — for their active civic position, academic excellence, participation in the international educational and cultural project “Dialogue of Two Cultures”, and volunteer activities.

The awards were presented by the Department of Culture and Tourism of the Ternopil Regional Military Administration.

The event once again confirmed that the spirit of Cossackdom is not just history — it is a living continuation of the traditions of courage, dignity, and love for Ukraine in the hearts of modern youth.
