On April 30, 2020, Constitutional and Administrative Law Department under the guidance of Olga Husar and Oksana Myronets conducted an online educational tour for first-year students of the Faculty of Law in honor of the International Day of Remembrance of the Chernobyl disaster. The students joined a virtual tour of the National Museum “Chernobyl” via the link. The future lawyers inspected the museum’s collections and exhibitions, which reflect the devotion and courage of liquidators, scientists, military, volunteers who risked their lives and health, who in 1986 performed complex work on the scale of emergency response to this tragedy. During the tour, the future lawyers were convinced that the Chernobyl disaster was not only a huge tragedy and a large-scale environmental catastrophe of the twentieth century but also a lesson to all mankind. Nuclear energy out of control does not recognize borders. The consequences of a radioecological catastrophe have no analogs and differ from other world-famous natural and man-made catastrophes and will be felt for a long time and, unfortunately, will remind of themselves and our descendants. The lessons of this catastrophe became a warning to the younger generation. The event helps to recreate the tragic page of the history of our state, forms an ecological culture and a culture of safe living. The memory of the Chernobyl disaster is a tribute to the people who put their health on the “atomic” altar.
