Ecoaction - Center for Environmental Initatives

Ecoaction was founded in March 2017 as a member-based civil society organization that unites experts and activists to advocate for nationwide changes in climate, energy, and agricultural policies. We focus on influencing decision-making processes, educating from the local to national level, and engaging and strengthening the community of ecoactivists. The organization closely collaborates with regional initiatives, activist groups, and local communities all around the country. Ecoaction believes its mission is to protect the environment via influencing decision makers and stakeholders and to develop an active Ukrainian community. Thus, main activities of the organisation is research to understand the nature of environmental problems and possible solution, advocacy towards state officials on national and local levels and public opinion mobilisation through the social and traditional media, work with supporters and volunteers. In Ecoaction, we believe that building coalition is important to achieve change, thus we work in various networks in Ukraine and internationally.
