Natalia Volvach's presentation was titled "Unsettling Vulnerability in the Wake of Violence: Witnessing the war unfold in Qirim-Crimea during the time of the Russian occupation".

During the conference, Danielle Drozdzewski and Natalia Volvach also organized a panel titled "Remembering Trauma: Imprints of War Violence on Bodies and Landscapes", where they featured their ongoing research.
