Ukrainian Bookshelf Launched at AUST to Promote Culture
On September 23, 2026, the Embassy of Ukraine in Nigeria and the African University of Science and Technology (AUST) in Abuja inaugurated a Ukrainian Bookshelf at the university's library. This initiative, spearheaded by Olena Zelenska, the First Lady of Ukraine, aims to make Ukrainian literature, history, and culture accessible to readers globally.
The bookshelf is part of a broader effort to strengthen cultural and educational connections between Ukraine and Nigeria. During the opening ceremony, attended by Ivan Kholostenko and various academic staff and embassy officials, a Ukrainian diplomat presented the collection of books, all published in English.
These books cover diverse topics, including Ukraine's cultural heritage, its long-standing quest for independence, and its ongoing conflict with Russia. Ambassador Kholostenko emphasized the importance of this partnership with AUST in fostering enduring relationships between nations through education and cultural exchange.
