This is an opportunity to get almost one and a half million hryvnias per project for Ukrainians who suffered due to Russia's war against Ukraine.

Launch an information campaign about the dangers of Telegram, develop a system for prosecuting collaborators and war criminals, create an archive of Russian war crimes, or implement any other project that will protect the rights and freedoms of Ukrainians. You will have nine months to implement the idea in Ukraine.

The competition is managed by the International Renaissance Foundation with the financial support of the EU. This is one of thousands of EU opportunities for Ukraine.
