Ukrainians are hosting “clean-up raves” to help restore places destroyed by Russian attacks. One of these places was the village of Yahidne in northern Ukraine. The daytime “clean-up rave” was organised by young Ukrainians who have been using dance parties as a way of rebuilding their country. While volunteers toss piles of debris onto tractor trucks, a DJ spins techno and house dance music on top of a stack of ammunition boxes.
This clean-up at the village’s cultural centre is the eighth project for the group so far. They had already repaired 15 damaged homes, with plans to expand and hold a building camp nearby where they will construct 12 more homes.
“Volunteering is my lifestyle now,” said an organiser with the Repair Together initiative, Tania Burianova. “I like electronic music and I used to party. But now it’s wartime and we want to help, and we’re doing it with music.”
