Call for Proposals: Selection of 3 New Partnerships across Ukraine

In November 2025, LIBERECO had launched a call for proposals “Human Rights x Humanitarian Action” to support vulnerable communities in exercising their human rights and advocating for others’ rights. We received over 100 applications from organizations across Ukraine, reflecting the challenge’s scale and the sector’s commitment.

After a structured selection process, selection process, we are proud to announce the three projects selected for partnership:

1. National School of Lawmakers 4.0 — led by U-GENERATION in Kyiv, Ukraine
   • The project provides 30 young activists with the practical skills necessary for human rights analysis, legislative drafting, and advocacy. These skills will enable them to address urgent humanitarian and legal challenges affecting vulnerable populations. Through a combination of online training, an intensive, in-person law development course, and post-project mentorship, participants will draft legislative initiatives, publicly defend them, and possibly submit them to the Verkhovna Rada (Ukrainian Parliament) with the support of Members of Parliament. The project ultimately helps young people growing into active contributors to policymaking, thereby strengthening inclusive and accountable governance in Ukraine.
2. Access to Justice and Dignity: Humanitarian Support for War-Affected People to Claim Compensation — led by Democratic Initiatives Incubator in Vinnytssia, Ukraine
   • The project aims to reduce the humanitarian vulnerability of people affected by war by ensuring they have access to clear information, individual legal support, and a real opportunity to submit compensation claims through the Register of Damages for Ukraine. The project ensures that people are not burdened by complex procedures, and that they are empowered to know and exercise their rights.
3. Connecting Generations in Bakota: An Intergenerational Support Program for Elderly People and Youth — led by Khmelnytsky Regional Youth Public Association «Territory» in Khmelnytskyi, Ukraine
   • The project will create a safe, intergenerational space that connects children and youth from local communities with elderly individuals, individuals with disabilities, and internally displaced persons (IDPs) affected by war who live in two care homes in a small community in the Bakota area. Through joint creative and educational activities, the project will reduce isolation and promote the dignity, participation, and social inclusion of care home residents. It will also strengthen community ties and develop a scalable, community-based model with measurable social impact.

We look forward to sharing updates along the way!
