Resume

This intervention aims to support and empower young activists, specifically war volunteers and veterans, in Lviv, Ukraine, by building their capacities, offering reintegration support, and fostering youth-led advocacy. By creating safe spaces for collaboration and providing mental health and capacity-building initiatives, the project strengthens civil society’s role in Ukraine’s reconstruction. It will empower young activists to advocate for democratic values, protect human rights, and raise public awareness of their contributions. Through advocacy, creative expression, and safe environments, the project will support both their reintegration and long-term engagement in activism, contributing to local and national change. Ultimately, this project aims to strengthen civil society in Lviv by ensuring that these individuals have the tools to contribute meaningfully to the reconstruction and democratic development of Ukraine.
