Hordii was born and grew up in Lviv, where he graduated from the Physics and Mathematics Lyceum, becoming the winner of the International Chemistry Olympiad. Twice laureate of the Lviv Gifted Youth Support Program award. Since 2019, he is a student of the Faculty of Chemistry of Ivan Franko National University of Lviv. In 2022, in search of a community of active youth, he became an activist of the Ukrainian Students for Freedom.

For me, individual freedom is the highest value, and responsibility for one’s own individual freedom is the highest responsibility. USF is an incredible community of people who not only share these views, but are also ready to systematically defend such ideas in Ukrainian society. I am happy to join this community and hope to contribute to this work!
