Researcher’s goal is to create “passports”, comprehensive socio-economic characteristics,  for each “raion”(districts, sub-regional administrative unit) in Kyiv Oblast of the Soviet Ukraine, in the period before, during, and after the Holodomor in 1932-33 using the statistics and data from the state authorities available in the libraries and archives. The resulting database of the information about each raion will serve as a template for further creation of the comprehensive database of information about raions in other oblasts of Ukraine.
