For me, freedom is, first and foremost, the ability to be yourself and create the world you want to live in. In the ngo, I found like-minded people who share the belief that real change begins with ourselves. Freedom, to me, is something worth fighting for every day, and I want to live in a Ukraine where freedom is not just a dream but a reality, not just an idea but a way of life.
