Civil Society and Media

Ukraine is home to robust civil society and independent media sectors that actively engage with policymakers and state institutions, provide citizens with information about pressing political and social issues, and empower society to advance reform and solve community problems. The country also has a growing culture of volunteerism, demonstrating the commitment of Ukraine’s citizens to improving conditions in their communities and in the country at large.

Trafficking in Persons

Ukraine has been a source, transit, and destination country for human trafficking since the early 1990s. Men, women, and children are trafficked for the purposes of forced labor and begging and sexual and other forms of exploitation. The main countries of destination for trafficked Ukrainians have been the Russian Federation, Poland, and Turkey, as well as internal human trafficking within Ukraine. The problem has been exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

Governance and Decentralization

USAID promotes participatory, transparent, and accountable democracy in Ukraine through a bottom‐up approach that focuses on strong local democratic governance. Local governance has become even more important as Ukraine’s communities respond to the humanitarian crisis caused by Russia’s full‐scale invasion of Ukraine.
