Slavutych is a planned city for employees of Chornobyl nuclear power plant, located in the Ukrainian Polissya and built after the nuclear disaster at Chornobyl NPP in 1988 by efforts of eight USSR republics. Women actively participated in the process of planning and construction of Slavutych, being not only ordinary engineers, architects and planners, but also authors of individual projects, chief architects and republican teams' leaders. The case of Slavutych is especially revealing as the last and finishing stage in the long way of women's emancipation within architectural practice in the USSR.
