In Ukraine, commemorations of the centennial of the First World War were sporadic and mainly had a grassroots character. There were no large-scale state-organized events and regional authorities were not interested in or had no resources for implementing the state’s recommendation to organize commemorations. The main remembrance of the First World War was undertaken by academic historians.
