Open Ukraine Foundation Unveiled the Memorial Plaque to Ivan Gorbachevskyi in Vienna


15.05.2008
On the occasion of 154th Anniversary of Ivan Gorbachevskyi, Open Ukraine Foundation supported the creation and unveiling of a memorial plaque to the first Minister of Health Care in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.  

On May 15, 2008, the official ceremony of plaque unveiling was held in Vienna, at the house where the scientist resided (1010 Vienna, Wipplingerstraße/Mark Aurel Street). On the occasion of this event, the Austrian-Ukrainian Association jointly with the Austrian postal service issued a special stamp featuring the respected fellow-countryman’s portrait.  

Together with Open Ukraine Foundation, assisting with the unveiling were Yuriy Kostenko, Acting First Deputy Foreign Minister of Ukraine and Ivan Vasiunyk, Vice-Prime Minister of Ukraine and Erwin Buhinger, Federal Minister of Social Policy of Austria. The Western Operational Command Military Band of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine accompanied the ceremony.

By highlighting prominent Ukrainian figures who have made great contributions to the development of their country, the Open Ukraine Foundation seeks to enhance Ukraine’s international prestige and popularize the contributions its citizens have made abroad.
