Ukrainian Audio Guide Launched at Natural History Museum in Luxembourg
Audio guides in Ukrainian are now available on the tanker museum in Baku and at the National Museum of Natural History in Luxembourg.
The Gaze reports on this with reference to a Facebook post by Ukraine's First Lady Olena Zelenska.
According to her, “we are launching the second hundred Ukrainian audio guides at leading landmarks around the world. The 101st and 102nd guides are already available.”
An audio guide in Ukrainian has been launched on the former oil tanker Surakhani, moored in the Azerbaijani capital Baku.
This is the world's first tanker museum, and now you can hear the history of the planet's main energy source in Ukrainian, as well as how people learned to extract and use it, in particular, how to transport it safely. After all, as with any force, it is very important whose hands it ends up in, Zelenska emphasized.
The first lady also noted that a tour in Luxembourg, at the National Museum of Natural History, is now available in Ukrainian.
“It clearly shows the long and difficult path common to all countries and peoples – the path to becoming human beings. And this means, in particular, preserving responsibility for others and for the nature from which we come,” the President's wife noted.
As Zelenska emphasized, “for us in Ukraine, this is a particularly painful issue, because the war unleashed by Russia has endangered not only people but also nature. Twenty percent of our country's nature reserves have been affected by the war, contaminated by mines, and damaged by explosions and fires.”
Therefore, Ukrainians in Luxembourg or Azerbaijan will have something to see and hear in their native language, and thus will be able to better understand new countries and, perhaps, their own history, she added.
As Zelenska emphasized, museums unite the world by telling about what is important to everyone, and “the same is now being done in the Ukrainian audio guide project and our language.”
As The Gaze reported earlier, Ukraine’s First Lady Olena Zelenska has announced the launch of the 100th Ukrainian-language audio guide in a global landmark—this time at the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg, South Africa.
