Konstantin is an activist in the NGO ‘Ukrainian Students for Freedom’ and a volunteer in the NGO ‘Krop.hub’. He is a young and energetic guy with a lot of ideas. He grew up in the glorious city of Kropyvnytskyi, the center of Ukraine. He studies in the 11th grade at the European Education Lyceum, where he is the head of the student government. Since grade 10, he has been the chairman of the City Parliament of Children. He joined the USF in the summer, in August 2023, at the Leadership Program. Immediately after the PLP, not knowing the rules of the organization, he held an open lecture ‘Introduction to the USF’ for everyone. Since October 2023, he has been a member of the Youth Council of Kropyvnytskyi. Since the 1st grade, he has been dancing, but is not very fond of it. In general, he is interested in political science, economics, leadership, military weapons and events. She plans to study management in Slovakia, where she dreams of opening a USF chapter and introducing her Slovak friends and classmates to such a wonderful public organization.

‘USF is an opportunity that you should hold on to and not let go of, because if you do, you will regret it. That’s how I describe this wonderful non-governmental organization, with which I spent only 5 days, but received so much valuable knowledge and motivation that will last for a whole year. Nowadays, the ideas of freedom are very necessary for our society, because there are still people who are drawn to the politics of dictatorship and totalitarianism. But these regimes are not compatible with the freedom that prevails in Western countries. Therefore, thanks to organizations such as the USF, we are able to experience and learn to appreciate freedom and promote it around the world.’
