June 6, 2025.

    Ukraine's civil society has demonstrated remarkable resilience and adaptability amid ongoing challenges. As the nation navigates the complexities of post-conflict recovery, civil society organizations (CSOs) have become pivotal in shaping a transparent, inclusive, and democratic future.
    In May 2025, the Ukrainian government approved the 2025–2026 Roadmap for Civil Society Development, emphasizing the integration of CSOs into policy-making processes and the promotion of civic engagement at all levels. This initiative aims to strengthen the institutional capacity of CSOs, ensuring their active participation in Ukraine's reconstruction efforts.
    Furthermore, the Ukraine Recovery Conference 2025 highlighted the indispensable role of civil society in rebuilding the nation. Discussions underscored the need for collaborative efforts between the government, private sector, and CSOs to address pressing issues such as corruption, social inequality, and infrastructure development.
