‘I believe that freedom is the ability to change the state of affairs at any time, under any circumstances. In Ukraine, we feel it in our guts, because history always encourages us to take decisive, bold actions. During the war with Russia, young people who understand the meaning and necessity of an active civil society are crystallizing. Our organization makes a significant contribution to creating such a society.’
