“While staying in Germany”* is an online archive of over 150 photographs of Ukrainian forced laborers. For them, it was one of the ways to document their solidarity and mutual support, to communicate with each other and their relatives in Ukraine.
* The project name reflects the original inscription "During the stay in Germany", which was most often used on the backs of the photos by forced laborers in Nazi Germany.
