The theme of the webinar is the change caused by hydropower construction after the Second World War, which lost a lot of landscape values but was replaced by a high-quality modern industrial environment. Webinar presentations are based on 2019-22 Cultural heritage of hydropower (VekuVaku)-the memoirs collected in the project, old photographs and archive sources, as well as material documenting the current state and discussions at village evenings.
