The annual Black Sea Steppe Festival will take place on September 5-7 in the center of Odesa with the participation of representatives of the Kyiv Kobza Workshop, Lviv Lyre and Kobza Workshop, and Odesa Kobza Workshop.

The organizers of the festival said that for almost a century the land of southern Ukraine had not heard the sounds of the kobza, so they decided to dedicate the live broadcast of Intent.Insight on September 2 to this festival.

The guest of the studio was Vyacheslav Bondar, the organizer and ideological inspirer of the festival.

The kobzars will perform in the city center on September 5, and on September 6, a cultural fair will take place, with up to 200 participants expected. On September 7, the festival organizers plan to hold a Literacy Day with a presentation of out-of-school educational institutions, workshops, and locations from the Museum of Interesting Science, Kraina Mriy, and the Department of Education and Science of the Odesa City Council.

In general, in late summer and early fall, Odesa became a city of festivals. Thus, the August 26 live broadcast of Intent.Insight was dedicated to the first PORT Literary Festival, which took place on August 30-31. The guest of the studio was poet, member of PEN Ukraine, program director of the PORT Literary Festival Andriy Hayetskyi.

However, Intent.Insight is interested not only in culture - every week the studio discusses one of the problems that Ukrainians are concerned about, raising topical issues and trying to solve specific problems. For example, the live broadcast on August 19 was dedicated to the creation of a memorial to fallen soldiers in Odesa. David Pischevyi , the author of the concept for the memorial in Odesa, was the guest of the studio.

The July 15 live ether was devoted to discussing the problems of volunteer recreation. The airing on August 12, which was the first after a short break, featured the secretary of the Odesa City Council, Igor Koval. On July 8, host Maria Lytianska talked to Vadym Drumov, CEO and co-founder of Hillel IT School.
